| 553554 | 2007-05-27 10:17:00 | Can anyone recommend a replacement modem for a PC that is too far out in country to have broadband and the phone line has typical rural electric fence click/noise and other noises. Was considering a DSE modem, any comments/feedback appreciated. | not me (11995) | ||
| 553555 | 2007-05-27 10:20:00 | An external modem that can deal with electric fences would be the modem to get. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 553558 | 2007-05-27 10:44:00 | I have reasonable success with external RS232 hardware modems (have tried both a Dynalink and a D-Link), these are not "rural modems" but external hardware RS232 serial port connecting modems. By forcing the connect speed to 33.6 kbs maximum, I can achieve double the throughput in data than by using an internal PCI modem. In that location there are 2 electric fences audible on the phone line. These modems should be readily available on the second hand market, but please avoid anything that connects via USB. If you can get a Dynalink rural modem, they are the absolute best but have a high $ cost usually. |

| 553559 | 2007-05-27 18:18:00 | I can only concur with the others. For your application the Dynalink Rural Modem are the best. A friend was fortunate enough to pick one up from a local shop for $100. Seems it had been in stock for years and they couldn't sell it. May be worth a few hours ringing around if you cannot find one second hand. |
