Broadband modem emulator?
Okay I really hate my 56k plus I have to dial long distance, but I have to use it to login to some bbs es. Anyone ever heard of an emulator that would allow one to use a cable/dsl hookup like a modem. Prob just wishful thinking.
Btw, thanks for everyones help on turning up my modem noise, now I can hear the damn thing when I have to use it. |
The problem is a lot of bbs es receive on modem only. The IRS FIRE system works like this. The only way to connect to is is via another modem.
It's a security issue. They want direct connection so they don't have to worry as much about people packet scanning and snagging sensative data off the wire. |
there are such emulators, but they have to be implemented on the BBS side. It's a TCP bridge that tricks the BBS into thinking that the incoming TCP connection is in fact a dialup session.
