El 12 de junio, se cumplen 28 años de la fusión de 3Com (Ethernet) y US Robotics (Módems) en 1997. Una unión de $6.6 mil millones que buscó dominar la red, ¡pero la velocidad de Internet los superó! #retrocomputingmx #3com #USRobotics #HistoriaTech #dialup #90s

A little #ThrowbackThursday delivery today. It's a mint USR 56k modem w/psu & cable! This is actually for an up coming project which will mean this perfect modem will be getting an operation!!! #UsRobotics #Modem

Some artifacts from an active network closet down the hall, at the office in DC: a USRobotics 33.6 modem and a DEC VT520

Ihr wolltet schon immer mal über die Beratung bei #Saturn, #Mediamarkt & Co. lästern?

#Modem #Internet #90er #USRobotics

thanx to the @eventphone #38c3 video i got an intense #USRobotics Flashback:

Back in the days i got ein US Import of an USR #Courier HST #modem with the properitary 9600 HST Protocoll.

Comming from 1200/Baud it was like inhaling the future ...

MyF 1st Highspeed Connection was to an #alphaflight BBS called #Airport

so trading & releasing #Warez began ;)

It was a beast of a Modem and for me it was a mirical, when US Robotics released later ein #firmware Update for 14.4 and later 16.8 kbit/s

Looking for a tool this morning and ran into this guy. #UsRobotics #retrocomputing

รื้อของที่ออฟฟิศ เจออุปกรณ์เชื่อมต่อ Internet ความเร็วสูง 56Kbps เอาไปใช้ที่บ้านดีไหมน๊าาาาาา 🙂‍↔️😎🙂‍↕️

#Retro gibts dafür heutzutage noch ein Sinnvollen Verwendungszweck? #DFÜ #Modem #56k #usrobotics

Tech tip for better uploads. #PastTimes #RetroComputing #Amiga #USRobotics

Today I learned that that USR Modems are still available for purchase, in the US anyway 🙂🤷‍♂️

US Robotics 56K Courier

https://toobnix.org/videos/watch/32984809-b882-4cde-84c6-b39b63d6ce95

@eagar @jabb3rd Были ещё в сером обмылочном корпусе USR 56k. Правда не помню не 3COM ли я в руках держал.
Пришлось погуглить:
Тот что выше:
USR5686D
То что я видел похоже
USR5633B, только я не уверен не выньмодем ли он (но похоже нет).
Самое удивительное, что USR до сих пор жив и клепает POTS железки.

#UsRobotics #PalmPilot #BatterySwap

As you know, I am doing a cleanup. Even so it isn't #CleanUpMonday today.

Found the PalmPilot just in time for a (2*AAA) battery swap. The last apparently was 15th of June 2008. Which meant, a complete data loss. History repeats itself and I will never learn it seems.

¿Alguien recuerda a #3com?
Fueron líderes en la telecomunicaciones. Compraron a #USRobotics, otro grande, sobre todo en época de módems, y a #Palm (los primeros #PDA y abuelos de los #smartphones). Finalmente fue adquirida por #HP y quedaron en el olvido.

A #USRobotics 14.4K Data Fax Modem .. and yes, US Robotics was a real company… and not fictional as in the movie iRobot!! 😜😜😜
Only tooting about this because it came up during the live chat during my live show earlier on #aNONradio 🍩💦

Wink wink 😜 @Thalass 🙌

@neglesaks 28k baud #USrobotics

@mroach 28k baud FTW! #USrobotics

@satan Nice. Too bad it's not a Courier, though.

(I still use my #USRobotics screwdriver that I must have gotten with a Courier.)

@flameeyes
I thought #UsRobotics was out of business…
And I seriously doubt that that modem will work on VoIP lines…

What a remembrance, by the way!
