- Ah, someone else on the 'net was complaining about this. Since I don't use
- my modem for long periods of time without cycling the power (I turn it off
- after I'm done using it for the time being), I have never had this problem.
-
- If you call PPI's Tech Support and bug 'em, you can get the beta
- version of the ROM that's supposed to fix the problem. The 1.12c ROM
- fixed a few problems (modem speaker, 1200 baud connects, a small
- discrepency in help), but apparently not that one.
-
- Kind of a bummer, but at least the modem works better than the Supra's or
- Zooms (from what I've heard anyway).
