  The Sportster does that at 2400. Hang on... I'll call the PCUG.

  Yair ARQ/LAPM/V42bis... at 2400 set up just the way I called you.
Their Netcomm M34Fs seem to speak USR-Sportster-ese pretty fluently.
What's wrong with yours?

  You'll never make a good engineer, will you? I was looking for a

  I think you may know already. Why won't your Netcomm permit a V42
session at 2400 when the PCUG does it no worries at all? And the other
question is why so many errors anyway... with you as the originator.
