My T2500 came with an insert to the docs entitled "Telebit T2500 Modem Release 7.00 Addendum", which talks all about V.42 and V.42bis. V.42, FYI, is the CCITT's error-correction protocol for 2400 and 1200 bps modems. V.42bis is a compression protocol that can increase speed up to four times over a V.42 link. -- Marc Unangst | "Decryption is not supported by crypt(C) in the mju@mudos.ann-arbor.mi.us | export version of SCO Unix." ...!umich!leebai!mudos!mju | -- SCO User Guide, Open DeskTop
