Diamond SupraExpress 56e

Had a 56e PRO for 2 or 3 years, in 2 systems much fiddled with. Never fails, speeds always good (friends have thier ups and downs with other modems, very easy to install, useful having the LEDs on the front, not a bad price. And no, I don't work for Diamond!

Many people think that there is hardly any difference between any of the 56k modems. I used to feel the same way myself. Some months ago I had a 56k software modem (HSP it was), it was ok for surfing, emails, etc., but online gaming was virtually impossible.

If like me you know nothing about computers,modems and have only just got a PC,welcome to my world.I have just found the internet about 3mths ago and having an internal(inside the pc)modem, it wasnt quite good enough.It was a little too slow for our internet server,which is freeserve and we were always getting cut off then our modem wouldnt respond.A pain or what. So I decided to go and buy an external modem to see if that would work.I went to Pc world and offered me the usual sale antics and eventually told me that Diamond Supra was the one for me.Well these things are not cheap so its was mid range,small, so I took it home. After trying to convince hubby to ...  Read the complete review
