I'll happily do that, but I need more evidence -- like a log file showing
the DLE characters signalling "I see a dial tone". (Just the 50-odd lines
around this should be sufficient).
Add to this an even more detailed description plus the output of ATI7,
then I can forward it. Without that, the response will be "what firmware
is he using? Did he try the latest firmware?" (which I'd suggest as well -
USR support isn't too quick anyway, so let's exclude all possible
stupid-user-bugfixes before even contacting USR beforehand).
