Have you tried the Motorola Lifestyle? Once you set &R0%R2 and
appropriate commands to give the connect responses you want it is a pretty
well trouble-free V.34 modem with V.42 and V.42bis...

Otherwise, you could get one of the newer Motorola 3265's at about $1300...

With the 3265 comes the confidence of being able to speak with one of the
designers (Les Brown of Motorola ISG) and the people responsible for the
homologation for Austel requirements (Tom McNamara and John Dalton). The
only Australian modem designers that made themselves that available were
Greg Phillips of Halcyon and the person who ran Datasat (makers of the
Biztel modems).
