- I have a 28.8 Sportster with the 4/15/95 ROM, and it works great. I
- consistently get 28.8 connections with my local ISP, and have never
- had disconnect problems. In fact, I discovered that call waiting
- won't bump me off (which is not what I wanted). Support said it was
- designed that way, so my solution is to use L2M2 to keep the speaker
- on all the time at a low volume. If a call comes in and I want to
- answer it, I disconnect the session myself.
-
- I'll have to think twice before replacing the ROM with the V.34+ 33.6
- speed, and make sure the new ROM is reliable.
