subject: Supra LC gone bonkers

Anyone here using a Supra LC 14.4 on their BBS system?   I was struggling to 
figure out why my OS/2, FrontDoor setup was having problems RECEIVING data on 
14.4k connections.   After much tweaking of FrontDoor configuration, modem 
configuration, and an SIO (for OS2) update, the same problem persisted.  The 
maximum RECEIVE speed I could get was 9600bps!   TRANSFERs from my system 
were OK at 14.4k!  ...only RECEIVING would fail miserably, and often the 
connection would just quit.
I decided to dust off a cheapo QuickTel 14.4k that I reserved for emergencies 
or as a spare.   Lo and behold... the QuickTel works flawlessly and 14.4k LD 
connections to Ottawa, Peterboro and Montreal are solid and stable.
I believe that the Supra LC is still well within the 5yr warranty.  So.. I 
hope to get a replacement.
BUT.. has anyone else experienced similar problems with their Supra LC model?
