I use an Anchor 96E5, which works with the NeXT very well. At the
moment I can use V.32 and V.42, soon there will be a V.32bis and
V.42bis and fax possible (sierra). (V.42bis in about two weeks, V.32bis
in 3-4 weeks and fax should work in 1-2 months.) But maybe all this is
already possible in the US. (The EPROM code is already set up for all
that stuff) - BTW the modem is connected to the NeXT with 38400 Baud.

Fazit: I'm absolutely satisfied with the modem for a reasonable price
(speaking for Germany).
