- There were 3 requests from the Cardinal to retrain and there were 3 link
- timeouts. There were no requests from the Sportster to retrain. This
- implies that the Cardinal is seeing problems on its receive. Try your
- friend's Supra from your house (on your line) and see if it is more
- stable. An alternative test would be to bring your modem to your
- friend's place and try it. If it shows that only the Sportster has
- trouble, you will need to contact USR to return it for repair.
