I would like to hear comments or pointers to information regarding the
performance of the Packard Bell PB2400PLUS 2400 baud modem.

My roommate recently purchased one for just under $150, and we are
experiencing some glitches.  For example, it will connect at 2400 baud
one time, 1200 baud the next.  Of course, once it connects at 1200
baud it changes it's serial interface speed which then no longer talks
to the terminal port!  I wonder if it is this particular modem, or a
design flaw in the product.

Anyone else have one of these beasties?

Thanks...
