Unacceptably high negotiation faliure rate? I admit that the Dynalink is
annoying when it reports BUSY when the modem is ringing, however I got
around this by adding a few pauses as a suffix... But I've had no problems
with any negotiation faliures.. 1 in 10 33K6 connects at 31k2 however speed
shifts to 33k6 within a few mins of the connection.. 28k8 connections a
perfect. Maybe its your phonelines??
