	Here at ukecc we just recently installed an AT&T 3B20. So
as to better communicate with the outside world, we have 6 telephone
lines available for dialing in/out. All we need are some decent modems.
We plan on purchasing the Basic Networking Utilities software package
from AT&T.

	We would appreciate any and all comments/suggestions/recomendations
on good (hopefully cheap) modems.

	Currently we are using a (borrowed) USR Password which seems to
work OK except that it sends out this annoying CONNECT message when it
gets a carrier. (It sends it out the serial port, not the phone line)
I personally like the Prometheus Promodem 1200, but they cost about
$50 more than the Password.

	What is in use out there in the rest of netland and what is
good and what is bad?

	All comments welcome!

Please mail correspondence to...
