While listening to Lewin Edwards Pete heard:M11F and USR V.34+

G'day Lewin

 LE> Amazing. I never managed to get an M11F to connect using V.FC, I
 LE> always had to lock down to V.32bis. Interstate, intrastate, or
 LE> ISD, to various USRs. I hate the bloody things (USR V.34

 PC> This is strange as i have both a M11F and a USR Courier and
 PC> don't have the problems your having, I've called M11F's with the
 PC> courier and

 LE> It can't be my line because :

 LE> (a) it happens on all the lines into my house (not that that's
 LE>     much of a test)

 LE> (b) to non-USR modems, my M11F gets great connects.

 LE> I have tried any number of NetComm firmware revisions. It's not
 LE> isolated to this M11F either, I recall posting some detailed
 LE> results of EXPENSIVE tests which indicate clearly to me that a
 LE> USR is not to be trusted if you're paying timed rates for the
 LE> call, unless both ends are USR.

Maybe USR's have a LPD 'Lewin Proxcimitry  Device' built in that
activates when you call one :-)
