We are starting to use 2400 baud modems here and prefer the error-correcting
protocol by a long shot. However there is a logical "deficiency" of sorts.
If a line got very bad with a regular modem you might see lots of error
characters and say "look here, a bad line/connection/modem". With the
correction going on, however, you'd see what might look like a degredation
in response time, up to perhaps very severe. This COULD result in incorrect
perceptions or conclusions about services or response time rather than
a realization about broken lines/modems.
Thanks, Doug
