I like my pair. They seem to work well. I'm using them to implement a PPP link in
V.32bis/V.42bis mode. Talk to the modem at 38400 with flow control enabled.

My impression (as an end user) is that Digicom sell's industrial strength modems, at
perhaps a slightly higher than commodity price. But worth the price if you're
running them 24hours a day, 7 days a week etc.
