- Bill,
-
- There will not be a selection for a 33.6 modem, select the Sportster
- 28.8. The script file will support the 33.6
- connection speeds.

- This was in response to someone who couldn't "see" the 33.6 option
- after getting the .inf file in place.
-
- Thus, even if you have the proper 33.6 .inf file in your windows/inf
- directory, USR is saying you will not be able to recognize it as such.
- This, in fact, was the case for me.
-
- Also, and while I cannot vouch for the accuracy of this next item
- (except that along with the above it seemed to solve my upgrade
- problems), FWIW many people are having trouble with the USR *website*
- version of the Sportster 33.6 .inf file. Apparently the *BBS*
- version works better for some (use your Win95 Hypterterminal applet @
- 708-982-5092).
