Whatever happened to international standards organisations? :)

Bad? Well, I can assure you the modem can carry out voice functions.. If it
was external, I'd run a serial splitter on the line to work out what was
being passed between, but it's internal so it's a little harder...

BTW, I did get an e-mail back from Banksia, apparently they no longer offer
support via E-mail. I have to phone a number which is interstate, and
apparently I'll need my credit card number handy because it most likely will
require payment for a request of that nature..

Of course! I forgot about mid.. Here's the output; You'll find out why I
didn't include ATI9.. From ATI8, the modem returns an error.
