Communications Networking Riser

[Guest]

Anyone know anything about CNR(Communications Networking Riser)? Also does anyone know where to get CNR products?

BURP!!!!!!

You can get CNR/AMR products on Pricewatch. Basically, there is supposed to be a whole line of products, including modems, soundcards, and network cards, but all I ever see is modems. CNR devices do not have any real hardware on them, they simply contain an interface. A CNR modem is a 100% software modem that totally relies on the processor, and is basically the same as those cheap onboard modems. An AMR soundcard would be the same way-just an interface, same as cheap onboard stuff.
Funny thing is that CNR is made to be inexpensive, but at around $15 for a CNR modem, you could actually find a REAL modem at that price (like the Lucent modem-good deal BTW). The only reason to use a CNR modem is if your motherboard is running out of PCI slots and you have an empty CNR slot.

Those things suck. Who's idea was it to come up with those anyways? I've never seen one used.
