3Com USR 56 k Sportster modems.

Apr 24, 2024 Last reply: 2 years ago 4 Replies

Hello again,



I have two or three USR Sportster modems. Well made and would probably work for decades if need be.



Seems somewhat wasteful to recycle. Is there a practical current use?



Thanks, ... P.


Small space heaters?

Don't they plug into a laptop PCMCIA port?

That could be the issue, re continued deployment anywhere.

NO. They (are) were standalone modems with 25 pin connectors and a phone jack. Dip switch settings, About 7 inches by 4 inches by 1 inch. Wall wart Power.

Ha, ha.

Yep, the unfortunate reality for so much old equipment. =8~/
