I've just spent half an hour on the support line after seeing the
announcement in demon.announce that the line is no longer beta! The
person I spoke to said he couldn't understand why it wasn't working,
gave me a list of strings (all ones that I have tried without
success, except for the ones that disable 33k6 and 31k4 which make it
pointless connecting to the new lines). He said he would look into
it....
