Slow connection
Question: What was the baud rate of a typical 2400 BPS modem?
- 300 baud
- 600 baud
- 1200 baud
- 2400 baud
Answer: 600 baud
Baud measures signal state changes per second, not bits per second. Most 2400 BPS modems conformed to the V.22 standard, using a baud rate of 600, and a modulation technique that transmitted four bits per baud.
