Have a look at PPP with Van Jacobsen TCP/IP header compression, I've been running it over a V.32 link, even for X traffic and have found it to give better performance than SLIP. This is especially true if you're using it over a TELEBIT modem with the PEP protocol. A VJ compressed PPP packet containing a single keystroke and the header will fit into the micropacket on a TrailBlazer, unlike the corresponding SLIP packet which will not, and will cause the TrailBlazer's addaptive duplex algorythm to trash. -- Mikel Manitius mikel@aaa.com
