PE> I have dropped back to July5/July5

BG> So is Rod's Supra now connecting properly with that SDL ?

PE> Rod had the same problem with DD's modem, on that code level.

Yep, thats the crucial point.

PE> I'll let Rod reply to the current situation.

No obvious difference with that SDL or the slightly later one.

I've since called Bills non Austel Sportster V34 four times in a row and
got absolutely perfect connects every time, not a hint of any retrain,
or line errors or anything at all. Which now points the finger pretty
unambiguously at the USR Courier V34+ as being where the wart lies.

So far ONLY Austel Couriers tho, havent had a chance to try a
US domestic. Atleast two SDLs in the Couriers, three different
physical modems, three different sites. All with IDENTICAL results.
