"Attn: USR Digital Modem Bank MP/16 Users: HELP!

"We purchased some Digital Modem banks from USR to experiment with (USR

"also very common connection speed. Needless to say, we were delighted.

"Since that day, ever week since, we've noticed speeds degredate with no
"other change in hardware/software environment to SLOW speeds of 16,800

"Using:
"Livingston Portmaster 2E housing 30 asynchronous serial ports.

"Anyone else have this problem? Solutions?
When this occurs at our site, we reboot the PMs the next morning at 4:00 A.M.
We also run the same init string USR ships with the Netserver.
Course, we're (still) running 3.3.1b8 in violation of the beta agreement;
apparently, the beta agreement (and other Livingston agreements) may be
assymetrical, since producing code which assigns 0.0.0.0 was permitted.
"ps: Anyone upgraded the flash rom with the new 33.6 V.34 protocol yet? On
"another totaly separate MP16 we did, and it puked. :| Waiting on USR to get
"back to us. Anyone else solve this yet?
