The docs for these modems (aside from the USR Courier manual which is nice and thick) wouldn't mention something that specific :P I can stare at someone's connection that has a cheap no-name modem and an unstable phone line and watch them go from 26400 down to 19200 and back up to 26400 again. Both the Supra here with the neat LCD display that gives me the current connect speed and the Microcom ISPorte with the management software show this same train-down-then-back-up behavior. -T -- TerraNovaNet Internet Services - Key Largo, FL Voice: (305)453-4011 Fax: (305)451-5991 http://www.terranova.net/ ---------------------------------------------- Duct tape is like the force.
