Yeah, another typical PE response which will go to NUL just like all the
others which are strong on insults, but pretty bloody short on relevant
facts.  You already know that my previous failure rate was around 10%,
regardless of the modem in use at my end.  If you're not interested in
solving your problems, then I no longer have any interest in trying to help
you.
