Dennis,the limitation is how fast the Omega-written Signal
server for TS4 will accept the data.

Would the code run as fast as the hardware allowed it? Unless you wrote some
delay loops it to it, does that make sense?

Like Pierre said, the limitation is how fast the Omega-written Signal
server for TS4 will accept the data. All the fast serial cards and DSL
connections in the world won't change that. Standard serial ports and a
56K modem are way more than you need for 19K. The main thing would be
having a reasonably fast computer and an operating system (NT) able to
handle all that COM traffic in addition to the normal TS overhead.... 3
COM ports all going at the same time, 1 for the internet and 2 for
Dynastore. As far as the internet connection, RELIABILITY is far more
important than speed. Even the slowest dialup modem is faster than 19K
but, if your ISP has other bandwidth/routing problems or your phone line
is really noisy, your data will get mucked up.
