Obsolete?  28.8 modem?  C'mon!  The thing was quite happy on a test month
with GayOL and that is saying something.

Demon used to have Rockwell modems at their end - the 3400 is quite happy
with them.  Demon bought shit Ascends and now the 3400s are getting
confused.

3400 works with other ISPs so shouldn't Demon sort this mess?
