- the reason why the codes were removed from the bbs was something to do
- with export restrictions. i heard they will be back soon or may not be
- in the time being if you want the latest flash you would call usr tech
- department [8005507800] and ask for it. then they will upload it to you
- if the modem is on another line or hang up and call you immediatly or
- they can mail a disk. or you can get it from your local bbs as you said
- i havent seen any action in people hacking usrsdl's to do bad things
- so your probably safe to get it from the local bbs. one word of caution..
- if the sdl.exe program (the one thats on disk after the zip or self
- extracting zip is extracted should be somewhere between 300-370kbytes.
- if the flash you download is like realy huge, like 500+ k dont run it.
- sometimes people get imodem, rackmount code mixed up with desktop code
- and a rackmount sdl can actually screw a v.everything modem and in that
- case it would hafto be sent back to the factory to be replaced.
-
- if you email me i will send you the 01/23 courier flash via email
