No it's not, there are at least 2 differences, the kit used at
Demon's end and the Telco. Either incompatibilities between your
modem and some of the Demon kit or limits of the Telco routeing
between you and Demon, can affect the connection.

Neither of these are necessarily any fault of Demon or their
suppliers.

Try demon.tech.modems[1] with some real error messages and logging
info. I have no idea how to obtain such things on a Mac...

[1] I notice this thread was crossposted to demon.tech.modem,
that has now been corrected...
