WHO CAN FIX A DEAD PROMETHEUS 14400 EXTERNAL MODEM?
==================================================
On my recent trip to visit relatives in Oregon, I carried with me a dead
external ProModem 144e, made by Prometheus products. I got it at a thrift
shop, but dead-on-arrival. The CD (carrier detect) lamp is on
continuously.
To my surprise, Promethus Modems is out of business since 1996. The "5
year no-hassle warranty" is meaningless.
No components inside look cooked. It seems too good to discard. Is anyone
out there a "modem hacker" who could fix it, or could recommend which
components might be bad? I could transmit a list of the ICs in it.
