kin Tl Posts: 1 | Posted - 8/15/2000 2:07:55 PM Hi all, I got this 3com modem on the cheap and need to know if it is hardware and 56K. I was told it was but there seem to no documentation on the 3com site about this other than its OEM(based on the driver site). It is a Sportster model 460. Any ideas. Let me know if you need more info. |

malo Tl Posts: 7 Canada | Posted - 8/20/2000 6:36:57 AM In parameters, configuration panel, modem, diagnostics,you should see at "ATI7" the "Product Id" of the modem. Or go in Hyperterminal with "ATI7". |

v.Richard Tl Posts: 6222 USA | Posted - 8/22/2000 7:33:16 PM A software modem requires drivers in your windows/system directory that include .vxd and/or .dll files supplied with the modem with which it will not operate. A Hardware modem requires no such drivers & will operate without them. Aloha, |
