- Why would you want to advertise that it has a TI chipset? Isn't that the
- chipset that has all the known bugs in it? I'm returning the 33.6 modem I
- just got because it has several bugs (due to its a TI chipset).
-
- I'll be buying a modem that has a Rockwell chipset instead.
-
- Also, I heard that USR uses the faulty TI chipset, yet generic modems are
- often advertised as having a USR chipset. If USR has makes it's own chips,
- why are they using TI's?
