Product Release Notes
Windows 95/98 Installation Driver for
56K HSP PnP Internal Modem
(Using PCtel 388P chipset)
**********************************************************

HSP Modem(tm) is a software modem. It is different from the traditional modem in the
way it handles the UART and data pump. The software driver takes care of not only the
system interface, but also the UART and data pump by using the host CPU. The goal is
to make a compatible and better modem for customers in the modem market.

Even though we make the best efforts to correct all issues, there may still be issues
that are unknown.
