I use the Chelmsford number - it ALWAYS gets a du-finch-nn machine, which is
great as I too found the 'status up' died on n.demon connects;
If you can get a line with Ascend connection reliably, it's fine. Mine is,
anyway.
It also doesn't do the 'NO CARRIER' on first [-5th] connect  :)

If you get mixed machines, my experience is that only the manual ifconfig
command worked and then only 90% reliable; had to be done twice on occasion!
