Question about ZyXEL U-1496B

Well, after problems with getting my Prometheus ProModem to do what I
wanted, I found a ZyXEL U-1496B for almost nothing. I have plugged the
card in but it seems to die after talking breefly to it.

I am thinking of upgrading the ROMs in it, but I was concerned by the
stacked sockets in U24 and U25. The original screen seems to have been
designed for 28 pin EPROMs. However, a modification has been made such
that 32 pin sockets and 27C010-150DC EPROMS are in those sockets.

My question for any person on this list is two fold. Is this modification
the way ZyXEL intended things? Secondly, should I use 27C010-150s for the
upgrade or should they be faster?

Thank you.

Wes
