That's poor advice.  A "standard modem" will not use the _correct_ .INF file, 
and chances are DUN will display the DTE speed rather than the DCE speed as a 
result.

I have not seen Win95 write to NVRAM - in fact, the init string it stores is 
a full string.  It does _not_ init with ATZ, and therefore would have no 
reason to write to NVRAM.
