Re: flexfax: hylafax sendfax disconnecting after negotiation

[Josh Hildebrand <josh@jedi.net>]

Setting it up with Class1 also solved my problem.  But it broke the grand
functionality of autodetecting incoming data/fax calls.  So, now the question
is how do I make USR replace my modem with a class2.0 chipset that works?

Does USR even have a fully functional chipset?  Or atleast one that will
fix this bug that Hylafax finds?
