565.0. "combination ISDN/Analog Modem ?" by CSCMA::MACVICAR () Wed Apr 02 1997 16:16

    Has anyone heard of a combination ISDN/Analog modem? We are looking
    at purchasing modems for analog PC's usage but some time in the
    future, they may get an ISDN line.  Also, it could provide backup
    to the ISDN line, if necessary.  We have checked Digi and U.S. Robotics
    and looked around the net.
    
    Has anyone heard of this?
    
    thanks,
    Victoria

    There is one, but I can't recommend it.  It's the IBM WaveRunner.  It
    is a 28.8 (V.34) modem and an ISDN adapter in a PCMCIA card.
    
    I can't recommend it because IBM sold the product line, and apparently
    never had any real desire to make the thing work with Windows 95.  If
    you were looking solely for a win 3.1 product, or OS/2 (hah!) it might
    be suitable.
    
    Don't get confused with the ISA card of the same name.  It is strictly
    ISDN; but will emulate an analog modem if you want (eg, calling from
    an ISDN line to a analog modem bank).
