Hi,

My name is Virginio Marra, I recently purchased a new Sportser Voice
33,6 Fax Modem External. I tried to install it using both the Win95
drivers as well as the drivers contained in the floppy disc from the
US Robotics.

With this configuration the modem works fine for both connecting to
CompuServe as well as for the BBS.

When I try to use the Dial-Up Networking of Win95 in order to connect
to Internet I get a message that the system does not receive any
response from the modem.

I checked with the Robotics distributor in Sweden and they say that
Robotics has not developed the drivers for being used with Win95
Dial-Up. I also tried to send a message to the US Robotics, but I only
get a list of FAQ in response. At the moment the only way to use the
modem is to configure it as a Standard 28 800.

I wonder if the excuse of the drivers not ready yet is reliable or if
they are just pulling my legs. I don't believe that a Company such as
Robotics lounchs a product without provide the drivers for the most
common operative system.

I look forward to your reply.

Best regards

Virginio
