I can help here if its just drivers and testing they dial out. Then I can bring a PABX down and have a computer on the end to connect to, it will look like an isp set up for ppp from a standard windows dial up. If I have net access on the machine that will be shared. Not quite the real thing, but its what I use for testing. Lindsay Druett wrote:

Hi all,
Just something to note with regard to this. The rooms we are using do not allow us to test modems. I am unsure whether we have internet access either - can one of the Uni people clear this up?
I'm fairly sure we will have Internet access. Jamie is away today, I'll get him to confirm tommorrow.

That is a good point... The Internet connection with the last meeting was organised through CRCNet, which to say the least, has saved me a lot of plea bargaining and a mountain of paperwork. It's also saved WLUG quite a bit of money. Whether we can ascertain the same arrangement is over to Jamie.
A phone line could be provided, but there is a cost involved. How many people are likely to need a phone line for testing their modem ?
