So you are now connected to the internet with your old computer, so what, what can be done? Do you remember Bulletin Board Systems? Well they are still alive and well, only these days they are available on the internet over Telnet rather than over telephone lines. Instead of dialing a phone number like ATDT 55 you would enter an IP address and port like this, ATDT 10.11.12.13:23, or a domain like ATDT What does it let you do? This modem does not use the telephone line of course, it uses your WIFI network. If you want to connect two vintage computers together simply buy two! Want to host your own server on your vintage computer? No problem, put the modem into auto-answer mode. This means that all of your old software which uses a modem can use this device instead! This device behaves like a Hayes dial up modem. I am continuing to make improvements to the open source firmware. It's professionally manufactured on a custom PCB. This is a plug and play solution to get your vintage computer connected to BBSs and MUDs again. Please bear with me as I fulfil existing orders. Due to increased volume there may be a 1-2 week lead time in manufacturing.
