| shiekh Tl Posts: 34 USA | Posted - 4/16/2001 2:44:07 PM    If the DTE speed is only 112K as on many modems, what use is V.44 (6:1 compression)? Even with a DTE of 220K (rare) one can't really What am I missing? Did I just waste my money? |
| v.Richard Tl Posts: 6222 USA | Posted - 4/24/2001 9:25:33 AM  6:1 = max compression with V.44, and to totally take advantage of it you need a 'Winmodem' (virtual COM port not limited by h/w) or a port speed of 230k; However, to the extent that V.44 provides more efficient compression compared to V.42, you may see improvement in throughput with certain types of data even with a lower port speed.

You need to use SHSMOD driver from http://www.devdrv.com/shsmod SHSMOD is developed by Gigo. Which supports high speed serial communication with SMC, NS, Winbond, ALI MIO chip sets on Windows 95/98. The communication speed with SHSMOD will be 115,200bps or more. Alexey Stanovoy |
