The Securelink II Works very well with Windows NT. I have had a *lot* of problems with the Windows drivers though, and eventually gave up trying to get them to work. (Windows NT is my primary OS, so while it'd have been nice being able to use the card under vanilla Windows, it wasn't that important). *** BIG CAVEAT *** Forget about using the card with anything but Windows and Windows NT. ISC does not provide drivers for any other OS, and will not give or sell you documentation to write your own driver. (At least they wouldn't when I asked a few months ago. That may have changed now that US Robotics have bought ISC). If you plan to use an OS like Linux, get a Motorola Bitsurfer Pro or somesuch instead; those ISDN TAs behave just like modems (complete with AT commands) so you can use them with pretty much any communications program that can handle modems. -- Fredrik Nyman <ice@sled.gsfc.nasa.gov> Hughes STX NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Code 540 B12/E132D Greenbelt, MD 20771
