Re: Telecommuting???

[Danny McQuestion <dcmcques@xxxxxxxxxx>]

 David,

    I'm going to be starting this later on this year.  We are installing
an AS5200 Access Server for dialup (Analog & ISDN).  For AS/400 users we
plan on installing CAWin95/NT at the homes and running a native TCP/IP
connection that is established to the AS5200 using the PPP dialer that
comes with Win95/NT.

    I tested this over a 28.8 connection this past week and I cannot
tell the difference in response time between my 28.8 connection and my
10Mps Ethernet connection.  This applies only to 5250 emulation.  I
copied out a couple small files to QDLS and they copied pretty darn
fast!
