It seems that the Livingston PortMaster 3 works better than the Total Control, at less than half the cost (and VERY inexpensive if all you need is ISDN).

So is it better not to have been born or to have lived for a year or two and to have been turned into a fur coat? I don't know. - Barbi Benton, ex-Playboy bunny turned actress
