0:53 it failed the connection bro

The subtitles are great

Sounds like military satellite communication

I love the closed captions, cool video!

That's the song I remember of my Pace 56 Voice & Fax (modem) calling Demon Internet (a UK ISP) in the late 90s. 🖥🎤📞🎶

1:42 that's the famous one

Most of us never really heard the 56k one because all the ISP's were using kflex and all of us were using X2...plus even if you weren't it would be a miracle if your line was clean enough for it to connect at full 56k.

the subtitles are a masterpiece

best Wi-Fi in Egypt be like :

OK, now YOU have taken vintage modem-ing to a WHOLE new level here! Forgotten Machines SALUTES what you have done here! I'd love to see MORE videos like this, and even a display like this at a VCF somewhere...would that ever happen? Keep up the great work!

One day I'll upgrade my computer to one of these.

the subtitles are 🤩

Still faster than my Bell Fiber Internet.

Love the ole USR Courier modems. Very capable modems. I have still have a few of em in my collection including the special sysop deal where they sent me a HST Dual Standard 14.4k that is software upgradable to V.56K (took few years and several updates to get that point). Ran BBS with em in the 1980s and 1990s.

Now I understand why Tron soundtrack by Daft Punk sounded so familiar.

Cool video! I still want to get a HST Modem on day, they are hard to find lol

Half a meg of flash ROM for a modem in 1998. Seems like quite a lot! Thanks for the upload bud!

Whoever subtitled this.... Top effort. I salute you.

Any chance we can hear some Courier HST connection sounds? maybe HST 9600, and 16.8 kbps and finally 21.6 kbps if there is any difference?

Wow! Thank you for V.FC! I had a "life event" that pulled me off the BBS scene in August 1994, and V.FC was the last connection I used for running my BBS/calling other BBSes. Like a few others here, last time I heard this was a legit 30 years ago..

That's very cool of you to have all of those modems and how you recorded the sounds from them are well-put together too! Keep up the great work! How are you doing by the way? You're such a talented person! ^_^

I remember when 14.4 was considered blazing fast.

Tip: Enable the captions!

W the gyat damn acoustic coupler

Oh wow, an Armada M300! I had one of those for a few years - seriously nice computer, for its time!

Anyone remember the screaming cat modem?

0:52 the disk swap looked so clean, nice

What does 64, 4 and 1 stand for in 9:34 ? How do you figure them out?

World slowest and worst internet ever

this! this is exactly what I've been looking for! thank you for the thorough demonstration.

Today's generation: "Check out my new smartphone! I can totally connect with others!" 1964 Modem: "AM I A JOKE TO YOU?"

Ah, the sweet song of the freakish ears on a stand.

captions are do funny

Nice Cobalt server there.

This is awesome, it's amazing I remember so many of these

Youngsters. When I started, we were using 110 baud modems.

I don’t remember this at all and spent so many hours tweaking the S registers of my zoom 28.8 v.fast. Then again, I do remember I’d usually get 24,000 connections, occasionally a 26,400 and never 28.8 until v.34 came around.

Where could i possibly find the software for the Dialogic Diva card. I cant find it anywhere

Can you backup the terminal files on the disk i could use them

can You explain how echo suppression is disabling?

can You explain V22 also?

Oh, I’d very occasionally get this one when the weather was bad and the line was noisy. It was usually a “standard” 56k tone though.

This is awesome with captions.

This computer boots faster than mine.

How about the standards used for v.34 fax transmission? Theres an error correction scheme that happens after the main v.34 sequence of data

First one: 🐑🐑🐑🐑

When the captions said "beeeeggggassssshh" I felt that

i'm glad i know how to dial with rotary phones, because a lot of kids now don't know how :)

24oo baud was the sound at my house when I was a kid - BBSes - I remember upgrading to a 14.4kbps and was blown away with how fast the terminal window drew!
