Geoprt Telecomm slows interface
Okay, I've asked SOS-APPLE about this one and their response was, as usual, fairly uninformed. A useful answer would be great.
I've noticed that while I'm using my Geoport Telecomm Adapter, the entire interface slows to a crawl on my 7100/66. I assume this is because the telecomm softs eat cycles, but I'm wondering if there isn't an actual solution as opposed to a rational.
Heres the problem in detail: The modem behaves properly for a 33.6: good transfer speeds etc. However, once I've connected with OT/PPP, the whole interface slows down. I can watch menu and dialog redraws, for instance. Netscape is especially intollerable. OT/PPP, and OT 1.1.2.

There was an "OT/ppp slow patch" that if i recall right has something to do with global village modems. it should be posted somewhere on apples ftp site or web page
