I'm using my USR Sportster 28.8 on a PB540C and PowerMac 8100/100 with no
problem.  Here is the initiailization string I use.

AT&F1&A3&B1&H1&R2

If your USR is new, there should be no problem.  I did experience a
problem with an older 28.8 I had because it was using the V.fast
compression method, not the v.42.  Hope this helps!
