Modem Probs

Just writing to find out if anyone using the Portmaster 2e is happy using
a particular brand of modem.

We are using USR Sportsters at one location and Motorola Online Surfers
at another; we find that the sportsters tend to drop connection quite
frequently and that the motorolas often do not reset after a call ... thus
creating ring thrus on occasion.

Can anyone recommend a solution for these modems (ie new init strings or
other tips) or recommend a brand of modem that has been trouble free for
them.
