I need advice on dealing with leased lines. We've got a 2W line
(15 km of direct wire, 3K Ohm electrical resistance) and want to
run SLIP over this wire. I tried to use V.32 (T2500) but it simply
fails establishing connection. PEP works fine (about 1700 bps effective
rate with TCP) but have huge turnaround time - about 1sec (do not say
me about micro-packets and S120, I know :-) Moreover I think T2500s for
leased lines are a bit expensive. Thus I like to ask you for opinions
on leased line modems (both 2W and 4W).

Thanx in advance!
