All I can say is it works!

by bigsmokah , May 18 '00
Pros: Ease of Use and Instalation
Cons: None.
If you have read my profile you will know that I have worked tech support for an ISP (Internet Service Provider). After speaking with several thousand customers about connectivity and modem issues, you tend to grasp the more reliable products out...

Decent modem, Price Cut needed

by kupas10 , Jun 18 '01
Pros: Easy To Install, Reliable Connections, X2, V90 standards
Cons: Higher cost than most modems.
How I bought It

I bought this modem for 120 dollars at CompUSA since a lightning storm blew out my old Best Data modem.

Installing It
Since I currently have AOL 6.0, AOL recognized the modem info in about 45...

If you have line noise this is a great choice

by paul287 , Jul 02 '01
Pros: Easy to install. Resistant to line noise=faster connections
Cons: none noted
I recently lost my Supra Express external modem to a lightning strike and was on the look-out for a new modem.
I live in the country, and I do mean the sticks. I doubt we'll ever have cable access in this area, so I have to rely on a standard...

Caveat emptor

by rwebb , Sep 08 '00
Pros: looks nice
Cons: short MTBF
While it worked, it worked well. When it died, it took out the whole house.

From new out of the box in January 2K it lasted until early September. The decay was slow at first: gradually becoming harder to get and hold a high speed connection....

Best of the Best

by howardgraber , Oct 04 '00
Pros: Service, Reliability, Compatability, Durability
Cons: Analog Modem
This external modem by 3COM is the best personal choice for modem communications. I bought this device because it has been engineered from it's predecessors of 14.4, 28.8,& 33.6, and each one of those modems has also been top notch in terms of...

by shmanda , Jul 12 '03
Pros: ease of use, stable, great website support
Cons: price, can't withstand small line surges
Pros: Easy to install, fast & stable download speeds, website has drivers and a lot of information.

WARRANTY PHONE CALL A RIPOFF

by limepoint , Sep 19 '03
Pros: Looks Nice
Cons: Warranty is vapor warranty, buy a ZOOM modem.
The phone call to inquiry about warranty service for a US Robotics modem is a ripoff. They put $8.00 on your credit card just to talk to them. The phone number that you must use is a 801 (NOT 800) number; I assumed that 801 must be just another toll f ...

3Com Data/fax 56K modem external

by oppfinneren , Apr 09 '02
Pros: Brand name, reliability, external, lights, on/off switch, volume control
Cons: None!
Not much to say really, other than this is a top notch modem. Forget internal modems which fight for IRQs with other PCI devices, this external modem is reliable, solid, nice modern design and easy to use.

It's got all the familiar modem...

The answer to all the questions!!

by marinoiu , Oct 23 '00
Pros: Very good speed
Cons: None visible yet
There comes the story of how I bought my modem:
First I guided about how cheap or expensive the modem was. And normally I tried an internal modem (A webExcel modem). I was lucky I had a friend that let me try the modem before buying it. The answer...

The standard by which all modems are judged.

by Cosine , Dec 08 '00
Pros: Good name, ease of installation
Cons: none
Great quality, simple installation, solid brand name.

3Com/US Robotics has been the leader in dial-up modems for years now with good reason, quality, quality, quality. Once you've built a reputation as a solid performer you can pretty much...

Tired of the Cheap Modems

by vessa1 , Sep 19 '00
Pros: reliability
Cons: price
I know that you do get what you pay for -- so after being frustrated to no end with a Motorola internal and a HSP internal dropping my connection every 5 minutes and not having a reliable stable internet connection. I just decided to spend the $129.00...
