the 1670 is a versatile modem but comes in 2 versions. The new one, if 
memory serves me right, has 4 dip switches; the old one has 3. that 4th
switch allows the user to turn of the auto answer mode. I have one of each
and leave the 3 dip unplugged so that callers don't get screeched at.
For my purposes (simple bbs & unix computer calling), it is adequately
hayes compatable.  If you buy, watch for the money back option...
