I have a SupraExpress 28.8 modem which seems to always take 3 attempts to
connect to Demon.

First attempt: 'You Have Been Disconnected'
Second attempt: 'Line Busy'
Third Attempt: 'Connected'

This happens too often to be coincidence. Is this a difficult modem? I
bought it 2 weeks ago - Is there a better driver? Are there any special
settings to make it connect with Demon?
