I feel quite helpless trying to evaluate a modem because there is no
published parameters on how immune it is to line noise. There was
one issue of pc magazine where they actually tested several 2400
baud modems on how much line noise they can tolerate. Turned out
that the more expensive models generally scored better than the
cheaper ones.

That was great, except they only tested a few modems. Do anyone
else have these kind of data? I mean, when a big corporation
(or the government) buys modems, don't they test these things
first?
