Your problem is not at all unusual. In fact, I would be surprised to hear someone with a non-Courier modem say they didn't have that problem. I bought two generic 33.6 modems with the same problem. I was told it's a bug in the firmware, and to this day it still hasn't been corrected. Generic modem dealers are proud to announce their modem is USR compatible. Since USR's and USR compatibles have this bug, I'm looking for a 33.6 that isn't USR compatible :) Return your modem. I returned both of mine. How dare they release modems with such an annoying, serious bug. > (2) Purchased a NEW USR Sporster 33.6k and now connections has some serious > problems on the same computer.

This problem is unbearable. -- http://www.csun.edu/~hbcsc096/dt
