Same here. We have a few who still have old v.fc modems.

How stable/reliable are they? We went from Sportsters to a Digicom rack
unit...and the digicom modems seem to hang almost as often as sportsters.
The rack is nearly full now, and it's time to decide what to buy next.
Right now, I'm leaning toward MP/16's...but the ISPorte is interesting.
Is the db25-rj45 adaptor really required? Capella says so...but I have
terminal servers that terminate their ports as rj45 female...so it would
be nice to just make the magical rj45-rj45 pinout cable needed and just go
straight from the terminal server rj45 to modem rj45.
Do you have to use a stupid Windblows box to manage the thing or is there
a usable character mode interface that a linux box could talk to? Can you
just treat them like dumb modems and forget about mangement?
