You're excused. LOL I suspect mine is a lot older than the USR you |
| 22 |
have. Bell South is looking for a v.90 or a v.92 compatible modem and |
| 23 |
mine is neither of these. Mine is likely about 20 years old, both from |
| 24 |
the features it has and the looks of it. LOL |

I did try wvdial, kppp and pppconfig. All did the same thing. I may |
| 27 |
give pppconfig a go with the other spare modem though, just to see if it |
| 28 |
will do something. |

My dip switch has 10 switches instead of 8 so yours is different. |
