- ZetaFAX seems to think the problem is with the modem. I do know that of all
- the modems which claim class 2 or 2.0 compliance that we tried, only the USR
- Sportsters failed consistently during the connect negotiation (a couple of
- other models which claimed class 2 or 2.0 compliance failed later in the
- send sequence). Since there are literally dozens of inexpensive class
- 2/2.0 modems which work flawlessly with ZetaFAX (which implies a rigid
- adherence to the standard on the part of the software), it looked to me like
- the modem is the culprit.
-
- I was pretty disgusted after the whole affair, mostly at myself for naively
- assuming that "Class 2" compliance was an unambiguous term.
