Gotta let you know that Rockwell fixed their bugs some time ago.  R-V and
Hayes should be shipping modems with the bug fixed by now.  Then again,
maybe you're seeing modems that have been sitting on the shelfs for a few
months waiting for a buyer.  If you have a modem with problems, take it
back!  The bug is a publicly known flaw.
