Los módems telefónicos de mayor velocidad teóricamente permitían ahorrar la mitad en comunicación telefónica. De cierta manera tenía sentido... pero la realidad es que la comunicación por #modem operaba también con cierto "efecto contagio". De poco servía tener el módem más veloz, si no había un corresponsal con la misma velocidad de transmisión al cual poder comunicarte... la idea era que poco a poco todos tuviésemos los módems más veloces... y ahí si, el general de las transmisiones mejoraban su velocidad.

On n'en saura pas plus sur la jeunesse de ce natif du 15e arrondissement de Paris...

I wrote about my experience with LTE modems on Linux and forgot to share it here. I tested the Quectel EP06-E, Sierra Wireless EM7455 and Sierra Wireless EM7565 with Debian and OpenWRT. Conclusion: OS support is great, the hardware is a bit complicated, OEM versions (especially from Dell) are cursed.
