I had a generic Rockwell RPI internal modem that wouldnt completly
log onto the Internet.  I discovered it was the init string.  Changing one
line of the init string made everything work OK.  Also, there's a shareware program
called WinRPI that supposidly improves Rockwell chip modems' perrormance
but I couldn't tell any difference.  I'm using a Rockwell chipped SupreExpress 33.6
modem now and it works great.
