I never did have a 9600 baud modem - but when I was in the dorms at Western Michigan, we had 9600 baud direct serial connections in our dorms. Not quite ethernet but mighty fine for the time (1990-1995). Since the 9600 baud serial connection didn't use compression it was faster, I think, than the 9600 baud modems.. and didn't tie up the phone line! spent a lot of time MUDding in '93.... too much time!
