Thanks, Ramon. I have a Speedcom (Cirrus Logic chipset, jumpers) modem and a Zoom 2819
(Rockwell chipset, jumpers). The Zoom is the winner hands down. My backup is an older
AcerOpen with the Rockwell chipset (switches)- a solid 33.6 modem. Linux likes 'em
all. I have never cared for jumperless modems.
