OK, I would have thought that InJoy would have overridden the modem.  I
did notice a quirk with InJoy and my modem.  I tried switching FCS
checking off, and things went awry.  I re-enabled it, and things were
back to normal.

Sorry, V.34+ is the highest my ISP has locally.  They use X2 as well.  I
will be switching ISPs next month, I believe.  I can get 56K service
(currently K56Flex) for no additional cost, unlike my current ISP, who
wants $5 more a month.  In addition, if I subscribe for a longer term, I
can be paying $5 a month less for that faster service!
TTYL,
