subject: Crappy flasher!

     I'm having some serious problems with me SupraFAXmodem 288i
     Last week I upgraded to the new 33.6k flash firmware.  Since then I have
been getting a lot of disconnect problems.  It seems when ever I'm doing any
significant downloads (like downloading pages from a web site) my computer
hangs for a moment, then disconnects.
     Also, on a smaller note, I'm NOT getting any better connect rates than I
was the older firmware.  All I get a 26400 connects, and this is WITH other
supraFAXmodemes using the new 33.6k flash.
     My init string is some what irrelevant, since when using Win95's dial 
p,
it seems to use an init I can't change, or even LOOK at.  However I seem to 
e
able to "add" more settings if I wanted to.  I assume it's using AT&F2, as I
also use this with my terminal software.
     While using DOS terminal software, the problem is also present.  When
downloading via Zmodem, things go along fine, then errors creep up.  Then 
oon
the transfer stops, and I loose carrier.
     But after re-connecting for like the 3rd or 4th time, and starting the
downloads over again, the problem seems to disappear.. but it's not exactly
stable.
     Anyone have any ideas that may resolve this problem?
