One of the disadvantages of an internal modem is that you can't see (by
your front panel lights) that your modem has kept your phone connection
even though your computer/terminal-emulator has signed off.  The power
on/off (cold boot) turned off your modem as well & lost the connection,
the warm-boot did not.  For hayes compatible modems & other communications
programs (I don't have/know crosstalk) hanging up (crosstalk bye???)
should work, to hang up "manually" within your emulation program - if you
have a hayes compatible modem - enter "+++" wait a sec (it helps if you have
reply mode set on) then enter "ATh0"  - thats a zero at the end not an
oh.   Good luck.   Andy Dicker.
