Product Description

The Zoom/FaxModem 56K Dualmode models are high-speed V.90 voice faxmodems with the ability to receive data from compatible sites at speeds up to 56,000 bps, and at higher speeds with compression. They incorporate both the V.90 ITU 56K Standard and K56flex, the most widely supported non-ITU 56K technology, to achieve download speeds nearly twice as fast as any conventional analog modem. That means fast access to the Internet, World Wide Web, and local area networks (LANs) over standard phone lines. Dualmode models automatically connect in ITU V.90 mode, K56flex mode, 33.6 Kbps, or any other ITU International or Bell standard speed to achieve the fastest, most reliable connection possible. They feature reprogrammable Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) and flash memory for downloading updates for all modem code, including DSP and Controller code. All models include Plug and Play for easy installation. Dualmode faxmodems provide high-quality voice mail when used with a soundcard. They also have both Class 1 14.4 Kbps send/receive fax for convenient printer-quality faxing to any faxmodem or fax machine. You can even "broadcast" your faxes to multiple recipients, schedule fax transmission, or forward them to another number.

Worth the higher price!.......2003-12-27

I have a DSL connection and wanted this modem for faxing and back-up to the DSL. I thought it might be too expensive for only occasional use. I have used it for both faxing and dial-up and it really works well. Speed depends on the quality of your phone line as well as your modem. That said, I get consistent 50+k connections. My USR would only do 48k at best. I do think the Zoom was worth the price!
I bought this based on other customer comments and everything they said was true. The modem I received is black and looks different than the picture but I like it.
I hope this helps your decision.

Best Modem on the market.......2003-05-31

Bar none this is the best modem on the market! As the owner of an ISP I have tested litterally hundreds of different brands and models of modems (most based on the hcf/hsp chipset) and none of them even other name brand modems such as the USR set can hold a candle to this modem. From it's ability to overcome noisy or long phone lines to the fact that even when it's connected at the "same" speed as other modems but gives 20% better through put. Don't even look at another modem buy this one!

Powers thru bad phone lines.......2003-04-02

Living in the sticks like I do, broadband is nothing but a dream. But it also means I have old MaBells phone lines. Which of course means I consestently log on at 19.2 - 21.6 on my old US Robotics 56k modem. But this new modem powers thru these bad lines. Now logging in at over 40k. Now that's a good thing. One word of advice. If you decide to buy this modem (a worthy investment) don't listen to Amazon with their reccomeditions on cables. DO NOT order Belkin F2J088-06 Modem Cable; DB25M/F; 6 Feet unless you have an old computer (older than say 4 years or more) You need a cable that goes from 25 pin male (modem side) to 9 pin female (computer side). Just thought I'd pass that along

Very good quality, reliable modem.......2001-08-27

If you depend on a modem to connect to the internet, you should pay for a good quality one. This external modem works very reliably and is easy to install (you will need to buy a serial cable for it.) The instructions are clear. It also comes with very nice software for fax, voice mail, e-mail and computer terminal emulation. The modem will also work with Linux as well as Windows.

Zoom modem lives up to it's name.......2001-01-09

My internal 56K modem never got above 26,400 bps, so I wanted to try another type of modem. The Zoom Model 2949 constantly runs at 43,000 bps or better on the same phone line where the old modem crawled along. Installation was very easy and Plug and Play does most of it automatically. You do need to have a serial modem cable, but that only costs about $5 or so. The Zoom manual is very thorough and provides good examples. All in all, I am very pleased with the Zoom 2949 and wished I had gotten one sooner.
