That's one opinion not necessarily shared. It's not possible that a Netcomm
could be at fault (Oh my, no!).

I ran my BBS on a KTX modem and it worked just fine. A friend down the road
uses the same KTX internal modem and he has no trouble connecting to
anything now that he has his phone line fixed.

... and why in God's name would you call anything at V32? Not that any of
my users had trouble connecting at that speed.

... and then there are those who have nothing but bad stuff to say about
lots of things because they can't figure out how to make them work. For
what it's worth I don't have a real lot of faith in Netcomms.`
