I've been using the same DUN Sportster driver for almost 2 : years, and only began to experience problems about 3 or 4 months ago. I don't : know what changed then, but Best assures me nothing's wrong at THEIR end, and : if I changed something, I don't know what it is. I'd check with USR. About 8 months ago (last summer, at least), there was an article in one of the trade rags (August edition of Computer Reseller News, if memory serves me correctly) that said that USR announced problems with 28.8 Sportsters. When in "terminal mode" (whatever the heck that nonsense means), the modem would see pauses of up to 30 seconds, and this would cause carriers to drop, etc. I may even be misquoting the problem. I'd suggest contacting USR for details. They may have a flashrom upgrade you can get. : If someone could point me in the right direction, I would be eternally : grateful. Please replies to <small@abomb.com>. As you wish. :) --Jeff
