A cheap 14400 baud modem for the Mac or Apple IIgs available at Mac
WareHouse. Their phone number is (800) 255-6227.
NOTE: This modem is meant for the Macintosh and comes with Mac-based
software, but the modems themselves are compatible with the Apple IIgs.
(They have the same cables and plugs.)
-The Line Link 14.4e, made by Technology Concepts
"The LinkLink 14.4 features v.42bis data compression to transmit your
data at throughput speeds up to 57,600 bps." "The integrity of your
data is preserved using v.42 error correction, so you get error-free
transmition at the highest possible speeds." (Taken directly from Mac
WareHouse's catalog.) I have this model and although I have heard
stories about people having to return defective ones, mine has been
perfect for the last four months and I am very happy with it.
The price I got mine at was $99 for the modem with all necessary
cables plus free software for Mac users. The newest catalog advertises
it with the Fax and Voice upgrade included for $119. (The old prices
were $99 modem, plus $19 and $29 for the two extras.)
When using ProTerm, you can use either the "Generic 9600 baud" or the
"Generic Fixed-Speed" drivers, both of which I have tried and work
perfectly.
