Well I actually called US Robotics (which in the past has lead to my
attitude)... but to my suprise, I was able to get support and work with them.
After testing their PCMCIA card with them, they agreed it was working to the
same level as their standalone modems (way below it in fact).

So we returned it and got another Cardinal PCMCIA card instead... After
connecting 26400 to the USR bbs with it (and their courier pcmcia would only
connect at 21.6 or 16.8), I know my opinion of USR PCMCIA is correct :)
(attitudes aside)
