Anyone else got a courrier external modem (a true classic?)

Mine's approx 4+ years old, yet the latest v.90 firmware patch on the 3com (australia) site works fine on my modem, I wonder if they can impliment v.92 on this modem, any word from anyone?

The questions isn't whether they can [they can], it's whether they will and no announcement as to whether they will has been made as of yet.

Latest V.92 info at www.808news.com/56k/v92.htm - with updates when they occur. Latest update was today: Zoom announces they are shipping V.92 modems, and will not offer V.92 upgrades for any of their V.90 product.

Aloha,
Richard

That's a disgrace ... and I agree, many modem manufacturers will do this to milk the market.

3com is normally good though....?

3Com is no longer the owner of USR - it's now an independent company [again].

But, past and current marketing of the Courier modem surely implies it can do V.Everything and V.Anything - ie, V.92....
