   Hi Peter, give Ground Zero a shot:  I am using a KTX 33.6 External on
here at the moment.  At least for the next few days.  I had a Dynalink on
and off here for a week, but iwasn't reliably answering especially after a
mail call.
I am tio try out a newer modem later this wek also.  A "Tasmanian
Devial" is the name.  Specs read well.  slightly dearer than the KTX
and Dynalinks but if it performs well than the price difference won't
matter.
Hope to hear from you.

Cheers,
   Frank,
