- I "upgraded" my USR Sportster (internal) 28.8K data/fax modem to 33.6K
- capability. Apparantly the new chip prevents sending faxes with ProComm+.
- It works fine, however, for receiving faxes and send/receive data. On the
- other hand, it will send fax with the fax software supplied with the
- modem.
-
- A call to USR revealed no known problem sending fax. Many, I repeat MANY,
- hours with three levels of support techs at Datastorm (ProComm) did not
- yield a "fix." Reinstalling the old chip fixed the problem.
-
- So, think twice before going to the Sportster with the new V.34
- extentions (to 33.6K). It may be deleterious to your send fax health!
