I have used it on my:
Apple IIgs Rom3
Apple IIgs Rom1 (Apple IIe to IIgs Upgrade kit)
Apple IIc Plus
All of the above use the mini DIN to RS232 25 pin cable.
It also works on the Apple IIe with the Super Serial Card and the Correct Modem cable.

Hey, c0op3r!
I'm having some weird results on my Apple //e with a Super Serial Card and I was wondering what DIP switch settings you are using? I'd like to try whatever you've got to see if it helps with my weird problem.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks c0op3r, I appreciate the info! It's been a struggle to get it to work properly with ProTERM 2.1 which is still my personal terminal of choice on the Apple 2, but I am pretty sure it's just my specific setup, there's lots of people out there who aren't having problems!

Even with the above Super Serial Card settings in my IIe, I can't get the modem to respond at all in ProTERM terminal mode. If I hook up the same modem to my IIc, it works perfectly. What am I missing here?
And what is the "correct" modem cable? I'm simply using a DB25 female to male converter.

There is a photo on the Apple II Enth Facebook page of someone else's SSC setting I will grab the photo and post it here when I am back at my workstation.

Got it working - I set the SCC and the WiModem to 9600 baud and used the generic 9600 baud modem driver in ProTERM.

Add the Geneve 9640 to the list of compatible systems. I'm using Port at 38400 when linking to other TI BBS's running on real hardware and able to download at those speeds. Users need to do an AT&K1. With telnet Window BBS's such as Mystic BBS systems, I have to do a AT&K1 and a AT*T1. Download speeds with Port are at 9600 baud and upload at 4800 baud.
Have not tested on TI-99/4A systems to know if those speeds need to be further reduced for up and/or downloading.
