[Ti] modem/internet connectivity in Germany

[Jim Soriano]

Hi Jerry:

I took my TiPBG4-800 to Germany during December 2002 and had no 
problems accessing the Internet and all my varied POP email accounts 
using Earthlink's dialup service.  Nice high speed V.90 connections 
(average connect speed >40Kbps.)

Peter was right -- the physical connection is likely the biggest area 
of difficulty.  I suggest you take a standard US-type telephone cable 
and a female-female RJ11 connector.  Most of the homes I was at had 
telephones with short cables with whatever German PTT connector on one 
end and a RJ11 male on the phone end.  In those cases I just put my 
RJ11 female connector on their cable and hooked my telephone cord into 
it and then into my PowerBook.

Regards,

Jim
