Nope.  Rockwell chipset K56Flex modems did not have the flash ROM space to 
contain both K56Flex and V.90.  You'll have to choose which one to use before 
calling.  Hayes is supposedly going to have a utility to allow reflashing 
their modems based on the system you will be calling.  The new V.90/K56Flex 
modems will be able to have both protocols resident in their larger flash ROM 
space.
