I'm not sure that this helps, but I do have bitSurfr's dialing into
I-modems (hanging on a Computone) with little problem. Right now
I'm digging into a performance issue (a 2B connection appears to be
running only about 15% more bandwidth than a 1B connection...)
I will be testing a Pipe50 into the I-modems around the end of January
or start of February. (unless I buy a Max1800 I've been eying... so
many choices, so little money...)
I haven't been timing the time between first channel connect & 2nd
add on, I don't think it's been running as long as 30 seconds. I do
have the I-modems set to do MPP.
