It's still better than nothing. And may be pretty cheap.
We used this from an old ibm-pc-xt router running ka9q to several sites
in town over 20ma current loop lines at 9600baud. FTP speed was 0.3 to 0.5
kbyte/s. Telnet was possible and delays were often remarkably bigger else-
where. Some our sites still depend on it. Maybe it is satisfraction :-).
