I had the same problem. However, I have also had problems using the Sportster 
33.6 for receiving faxes from some machines. I have tried Supervoice,QuickLink 
and WinFax Pro v4. USR have yet to come up with a solution although they did 
upgrade the modem to the latest version.

So, I am currently using my Sportster 14.4 with winFax v4.0 (since it happily 
receives faxes from the machines the Sportster 33.6 can't handle) and have 
relegated the Sportster 33.6 to Voice and internet connections - both going 
through a FaxLimk data switch.

Don't forget, if you want to upgrade to X2, you will be without a modem while 
USR do the upgrade  - when it is done, you could start hiring your 14.4 out 
to others upgrading!
