This is/was an
awsome external
modem, made by the
Supra
Corporation. This model was originally designed as a
28.8
modem. Supra was later bought by
Diamond.
New firmware revisions allowed the modem to reach 33.6 speeds. It
was a good investment at the time.
The modem also came with an excellent manual which outlined all the
AT commands.
This modem has 2 distinguishing features.
The case
The case is a simple rectagular slab, made from
aluminum, with a brushed metal finish. It's just a really cool design. I have
not seen an as good a design since.
The display
The coolest part of this modem is the display
on the front. This small display indicates the current protocol being
used and the dialup speed. As the modem re-negotiated dialup speed,
the display would change to reflect the new speeds.
