I can't speak for the rest but "YES"
Global Village 56k V90 on the printer port works better! Connections at
50,666 and no dropping, connections of 52,000 on AOL. I also run a Best
Data 56K V90 that works Just as well sometimes better than the GV both are
external. Name your connections by ports or modems, check your settings and
make sure your using the right software. AND with Aol make sure you choose
the right port, only go one setting higher than your modem speed. ( Set it
to high you will get a bottle neck and freeze up ) With AOL if all else
fails use Hayes basic or Hayes basic error correcting settings if the modem
is a GV then you can also use Teleport II setting.
