The machine is not the problem - its the connection. CUSeeMe will work over a modem 14.4 and 28.8 well if it is e perfect connection. On my phone lines even with a good 28.8 modem i am only connecting at 19.2. The few times i connect near 28.8 CUSeeMe works great. james In article <47r1gn$91k@decaxp.harvard.edu>, jpollard@scws28.harvard.edu (Jack Pollard) wrote: > The SLIP service seems to work well with all my TCP apps except for > CUSEEME.
