I purchased one of these after asking INTEL marketing specifically whether
the modem would handle all types of older modems, explaining that I'd had 
a problem with UDS V.3225 units (until UDS sent up prom upgrades for free).
Assurances, assurances...  Well upon opening the box, out fell a little 
slip of paper indicating that one might have to *disable* all the nice
features (MNP, etc.) to get it to work with older modems.  Real *NICE* :-)
Even with that we've had considerable trouble, so much so that it is no
longer worth the extra $150 we supposedly saved by not buying UDS.  INTEL
apparently only thought of this as a dial-out modem, not dial-in.

Good luck ... Gerard Robinson
