- I had a problem with Qmodem-Light also.. It crashed my system when I tried to
- use its quick install for my Scout+. So I played with it and made up my own
- init string and it worked almost perfect. I then tried out the REAL Qmodem and
- it works perfectly! I used the 'Digicom blah blah (v23bis)' quick install and
- it works!! .. I dont think the modem is the problem.
