Hi We have 3 hylafax installations each with two USR modems running in Class 1. Not busy installations - up to 100 faxes per day of which 90% are incoming but we get as near as makes no difference 100% reliability. Modems are all model 5630B except one 5668-02. To get good reliability you *must* upgrade to latest firmware - 11.16.63 and 14.13.48 respectively. We used ISDN2e (via the POTS ports on some old Eicon Diva ISDN modems). This wasn't really necessary for reliability except at one site where we had problems with a long PSTN line. The bottom line - we used USR modems just because we had some and with our setup they are 100% reliable. Hope this helps Regards Bill A. -----Original Message----- From: bojan.stojanovic@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: 16 May 2006 12:03 To: hylafax-users@xxxxxxxxxxx Cc: ivana.maksimovic@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [hylafax-users] USR are buggy modems? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Hello everybody, Should I really avoid buying USR modems? They are most common external modems in Sebia and Montenegro market. Other alternatives that I have are Agere, SWEEX and Prolink external serial modems. http://www.hylafax.org/content/Handbook:Basic_Server_Configuration:Choosin g_a_ Modem "Also in the functional-but-buggy category are USR/3Com modems; they tend to work better in Class 1 than in Class 2.0, but it still isn't ideal. (USR doesn't seem to be fixing these things, either.) If you use one of these modems and experience problems do not be surprised to learn that it is an issue with the modem itself." -- Bojan Stojanovic system administrator Network Co. A.D.
