Yeah, I had the same thing, the rather elderly version of FroDo
I use has a max of 38400, and I wouldnt normally setup a comms
prog like Telemate to use the modem at that speed with a V34+ modem.

That sort of thing can certainly bite. Particularly when doing it
the way USR does the ATZ doesnt have a SINGLE benefit whatever.

And changing over to the way everyone else does
the ATZ wouldnt bite a single person either.
