We, too, have used USR Courier 2400's.  We have sold them, and we
use them in house.  The only problem we have had is the won't-answer
that George describes.  It begins as an isolated event.  Then it
begins to happen more often.  After a few months, it will rarely
answer at all, unless the calling modem waits for 20 rings or so.

Fortunately, USR offers a two-year warranty, and does seem to be
able to fix it!
