        Use generic modem drivers and/or init strings; then work your way on up.
If you use your modem primarily for Web access, the bulk of the content
is already well compressed (such as GIF, JPEG, Real Audio, etc...). My
advice: Get it working first, then fine-tune if you feel daring.

        Old Chinese proverb: A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first
step...

        Hope this helps!

<excerpt>Hi,

The following is an original message that I sent to Global Village/Boca
Research, as well the reply. Can anyone provide me with some more useful
information??

<color><param>ffff,0000,0000</param>I recently bought a Global Village
TelePort 56K Fax/Modem as well as a

Global Village PCMCIA 56K Fax/Modem/Ethernet card. I use the TelePort
with

a UMAX Pulsar (S900) computer running Mac OS 8.5.1 (Z), with an
OrangeMicro

660 PC emulation card (Win 98) and the PCMCIA card with a PowerBook
1400

(running Mac OS 8.5.1-Z) with a NewerTech G3 upgrade and Insignia's

VirtualPC. I would like some advice as to how to setup Win 98 (under

emulation) so that I get the best possible performance from my Global

Village modems, i.e. which modem drivers should I use?
