Well, I know that I can download from http://mirror.isoc.org.il/ in the full
download speed, and that I can also download more quickly by opening several
connections (using https://sourceforge.net/projects/prozilla/ ). So it seems a
bit suspicious.

I also recall that download speed from abroad was better about two years ago.

Well, I need to do things when I need to do them, and need to download stuff
throughout my computer working day. And when I do, it tend to sucks.

[Meir Michanie]

Hi list ,
I have three pci modem , that I do not know if they work in linux.
One is ESS modem
One is Apache V90
and another is Motorola  m6k90-000

Anyone knows if they are of any use? I could use them with asterisk or
any other way to send/recieve fax?

Hi,

You can start by looking here: http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/

If not, the chip name (or PCI ID) is required in order to dig and find a
modem driver.

Thanks,
Hetz
