 Sorry to raise this old issue but I have one of the infamous

 Dynalinks which are the re-badged USR Sportsters with the v42 bug.

 Interestingly, I've never experienced this bug (ie the delay during

 direct transfer mode) that others have reported and wondered whether

 Dynalink applied SDLs to these modems to fix this bug? Word was that

 Dynalink refused to admit there was a bug, but USR was issuing

 upgrades. Can you (or anyone else) enlighten me on this?

 Cheers...Steve
