Prometheus modem init string help wanted

I've got a Prometheus Home Office 144i internal modem in my Macintosh
PowerBook 170. I want to hear from others who have this modem in their
PowerBook 140-180 computers. What init string do you use?

I have experienced problems with it's reset delay. When I try to get it to
dial the first time, it is several seconds (10?) before it will. If retry
several times consecutively, after each attempt, it takes a few seconds
before it will attempt again; it's unresponsive for about 5 secs.
Prometheus seems a might clueless; they suggest one or two strings, one
which locks up the modem, the other which does no better than mine, then
throw up their corporate hands.

Any help gratefully accepted.

Thanks.

Enjoy,
Dave
