FWIW, I find the K56flex modems at U-Net connect and disconnect for me
much quicker than the 33.6 modems (again at U-Net).  The only real
problem is that they're officially `beta', and so often engaged and
stuff like that.

I *think* these modems are Ascends.  U-Net's Ciscos are bloody awful for
me using C&W or Energis lines.  I'm using a GV 33.6 modem, System 7.6.1,
OT 1.1.2, FreePPP 2.6.2, and a Performa 475.

I've not been able to improve matters by fiddling with the modem init
string.

Rowland.
