Hi
Unfortunatly I purchased 1 of these bits of junk to use with my
notebook while mobile. I wanted to use the software I use in the
office. Trumpet Winsock Bitcom & Bitfax. Bitcom and Trumpet works fine
but I use the fax more and Bitfax  will not work nor will any other
fax software other than the supplied interlink crap. I am fed up
trying to get Robotics to admiit they have a problem. The last straw
was when 1 of their engineeers told me that the Sportser V34 was type
2.0 compliant but not 2 compliant same applied to type 1.0 and 1.
If you just want to access the net its fine but if you need to fax
forget it
Bye
