I have tried two of these monsters, and both love to disconnect
me from my internet provider. In all fairness, so have two Hayes modems
(14.4 and 28.8), but considering that my old Intel 14.4 has no problem,
I think this is no excuse. I may have line noise among other problems,
but the Intel sure didn't care. I have tried everything with this thing,
from running it at 300 baud, to trying almost ever AT command in the book,
and a few that are not (ATWORKCURSEDMODEM, ATKILLKILLKILL, ...). You can't
even say my operating system or the rest of my computer are at fault, since
both an old MAC and really OLD PC have the same problem when connected
to this beast. About the only thing I have done that has helped is write
a program to make
W95 war-dial the net.
