V.90 technology installed

K56.com logo On September 30th, 1998, Msen installed production V.90 modem code into all of our Superpop hunt groups ending in -8000 and -8100 as well as Grand Rapids and Lansing. Users with V.90 capable modems should insure they are running the latest firmware revision! A good place to start is the V.90/K56flex Upgrade Site.

Other digital modem phone numbers will continue to run K56flex for now, providing alternative service for users who may have problems connecting with V.90. If you have problems, please let us know. Users calling our analog lines should consider changing phone numbers.

The current list of modem phone numbers is always available at http://www.msen.com/prices/phones.html or click the button at the top of this screen.

The announcement below will remain for reference.


K56flex technology installed

K56.com logo On September 27th, 1997, Msen upgraded all of its digital modem pools to K56flex modems. It is important to note that version 1.1 of K56flex is supported. ati3 should show the ROM revision of your modem. v0.5?? will only run at 33.6k.

Users with earlier K56flex modems should contact their modem manufacturers for current flash code or for an RMA upgrade if necessary. Most manufacturers have the most current upgrade available on their websites. The K56.com web site has links to most update sites.

Additionally, a site dedicated to all 56K modems, 56K.com has additional information and is a bit better organized. (Yes, it is confusing.) Many users have reported that this site is a better place to start.

If you have any comments about the new K56flex modems, please let us know.

The current list of modems numbers is available via: http://www.msen.com/prices/phones.html As Msen is able to monitor connections speeds, we have seen speeds up to 52K so far on these modems. (4/28/98)
