56k modems might renegotiate a lot.
It could be that your old comouter sent an initialization string to the
modem that either kept it quiet all the time, or let you listen to the
initial handshake and then stayed quiet.  That would be typical.
I've never heard a modem renegotiate, and I didn't realize that there would
be an option to allow that, but that doesn't matter much...

Renegotiations are not a bad thing.  They are a normal part of attempting
to squeeze more data onto a phone line than is possible under all
circumstances.

Did you ever hear the renegotiation before?  If not, then I don't think
anything new is happening, you're just hearing it now.
