OTHER INFO
I've been using it for about a month now and it works like a champ! -- J. Matt Landrum (cypress.com!al!mdl)
Make sure that the implementation you use provides for Van Jacobsen (VJ)
header compression. There are versions of both SLIP and PPP that support
this. Without it, interactive TCP/IP usage over slow (<56 kB/s)
circuits will be difficult to use.
