Yes, I remember your recommending these earlier. I actually went and priced
them, but I found them pretty pricey, and couldn't find any discounts. The
ones I mentioned were the result of price as well as results shopping. The
USR 5610B is about $10-15 less than the Multi-tech internal, if I remember
correctly. The Zoom and Trendnet modems are far less - I think I paid around
$35 for the Trendnet and about $56 for the Zoom.
When you buy Multi-Tech products, you're paying for quality. Their
products are built in Mounds View, MN on state of the art Fuji pick and
place equipment. Each product comes with free life time technical
support via toll free number/email/fax back system. Multi-Tech modems
control the traffic signals to the on ramps of California's Freeways.
Multi-Tech also invented the VOIP & still holds the patent rights to it.
The next time you see armored car personel refilling an ATM machine, ask
them what brand of modem is in it ;-) About the best deal you'll get on
a Multi-Tech modem, is through "Modem Express". They are a few miles
west of the Mounds View plant in Plymouth, MN. Website is; modemexpress.com
