I don't use CUSeeMe, but I posted a couple of days ago that I can't get
MacSLIP to connect with "115200" setting-- I get a "could not attatch
transport" something-or-other error.  It only dials when set at 57600
(should have bought the 14.4, I guess)  No one's responded.  Is anyone
getting better results?  BTW, what SLIP program are you using?

Then your SLIP was not configured properly.  There is no measurable
difference between SLIP and PPP, all other things being equal.

Dave,
They may be right. Your SLIP may not have been configured correctly. But I
had the same problem. I fiddled with my SLIP for a _long_ time and it never
worked well. When I got to 28.8 slip really bogged my system down. MacPPP,
however, worked great the first time. My PPP performance is easily twice
that of slip. Plus, there is no performance penalty whatsoever.

Perhaps we both had slip configured wrong. I don't know about you, but I'm
not going back to slip to try and get it worked out. My Mac runs great now
that I'm using PPP.
