I'm currently using a 3com Impact IQ ISDN modem connected to a serial
port. My ISP is Mindspring. since I only connect at 64k I only need the
115k capabilities of a standard 16540 serial chipset. (I can't afford the
$1/hour to bring up the 128k dual line that Mindspring charges)The 16550
(high speed) chipset will work under both Linux and Microsoft. I have used
my current ISDN setup with Mindspring for over a year, dual booting with
NT4. (That partition is about to get wiped and "upgraded" :) The ISDN line
comes from, of course, Bellsouth. I am about to upgrade connectivity again
since ADSL is available in my area, so the 3Com box is going to be for
sale, if anyone is interested.
