This is right. I have an internal US SupraFAXModem 28.8.
It has the same behavior. This Sucks!
I thought all US-Supra have that "feature" ?
Anyway the GErman BZT external Supra disconnects a-a1 b-b1. But i do not
know if if supports Silent Aswer (Plus).
AH>>Is there a way out ? For example an electronic patch or
AH>>even a software switch ???
I don't know, but it seems as there is no relais on the Circuit board that
could be use for such things.
SK> But I assume that the phone is connected to the back of the modem, eh?
SK> The modem should "turn off" the phone when it goes off-hook. Sounds like
SK> you may have a defective modem.
Well are ther US-Models that either disconnect the other Phone-socket on the
Modem, or that disconnect the two other pins on the same socket?
Cya...
