The WiModem232 works on both the TI-99/4A and the upgraded Geneve 9640 that I use. Keep in mind the maximum baud rate will be determined by the cable, computer, and terminal software that has been configured for the TI-99/4A and Geneve 9640.
I'm running at 38,400 baud with ANSI on the Geneve 9640, however with the architecture of the TI-99/4A, one may be limited to 2400 or 4800 baud with most terminal emulators.
Time permitting, I will be testing the WiModem232 out on a 99/5C of which there are only 3 of those systems presently in the world. The current hardware design of that system currently only has pins 2 and 3 available (plus ground) as it is hardware emulating the TI-99/4A. In the "raw" interface to the hardware, one can currently connect to the 99/5C at 128,000 baud. When emulating the TI-99/4A, I am anticipating the limit to be about 2400 baud.
For that system that was just released, I think other hardware (TIPI) will be the preferred route to get Telnet access as it is not dependent upon the serial interface.
