Hi Nick, 

I don't like being blunt<g> but please do yourself a big favour and ditch
this modem immediatly and buy a real one. RPI Modems even with the Windows
95 RPI driver are always a pain to set up and get working.

Invest in a new USR 33.6K unit with the x2 upgrade option, perhaps a
Courier model, and then you can forget about modem incompatibilities, and
get on with something more useful ;-)

Regards

Simon :-)
