Yeah... so??? That's a router. How much has v.35 interfaces changed over the last 10 years. How much as 10base-T ethernet changed over the last 10 years?
You're saying router technology hasn't changed much over the past 10 years? What color is the sky in your world? ;)
Ummm.... Today it's kinda blue-grey. 8*) Geez, we even had some snow flurries today... Cold nasty day. Anyway... The thought I was trying to get across is that the interfaces available to that router support technologies that have not changed in a LONG time. T1 lines have not changed, 10Base-T ethernet hasn't changed, v.35 serial interfaces have not changed, ISDN BRI hasn't changed. I'm not saying routers have not changed... I'm saying that routers *IN THIS CLASS* haven't changed too much.
If this'd been 3Com/CommWorks, they'd probably disavow any knowledge of the product ever *existing*, let alone support it to the extent that the technology allows.
Can't deny that. I'm guessing when the 26xx series came out, 3COM would have dropped the 25xx. Do I think that is a bad thing? Not really. I still use 2500's in our network, although most have been replaced with 2600's. I still use quad modems in our network, but most have been replaced with HDM's. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Curtis V.
