• AVM ISDN CAPI Port Driver
• AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver
Windows 95 as well as Windows 98 offers two communications
models with similar functions and features: the ISDN CAPI Port
Driver and the NDIS WAN CAPI Driver. While both drivers are
implemented as Windows system drivers with VxD technology
and controlled over the Dial-up Network, they use different
mechanisms and interfaces or protocols in the operating system.
The drivers achieve the same throughput rates in data
communication applications. If needed, one system can hand-
le the parallel installation of both drivers.
The AVM system drivers allow you to use not only ISDN software,
but also CAPI-based communications programs like FRITZ!32
over the Windows Dial-up Network, for instance for dialing into
the Internet.
