.. One fine day, Paul waffled to Dieter..

 Hello Paul,

 PE> Jesus Christ!  1 in 3 is not occasional!  Can you keep a log to make
 PE> sure you're not telling porkies?  BFN.  Paul. 
 
 DM>  The telix logs don't show a failed negotiaion.

 PE> They should show up "NO CARRIER".  My system will always return
 PE> "BUSY" on failed connect.

 They don't. 
 
 DM>  What about your logs, do they show any failed connects at all ? 
 DM>  I usually redial within 40 seconds.

 PE> I can cross-check a particular date and time.  BFN.  Paul.

 Sunday Morning. Sunday evening was OK though.
