The two USR modems I have that don't grok Mac don't
have DIP switches or any other switches to alter the
comm settings. The 33.6 just has a power switch and
a volume rocker. The 56K has Power, volume up/down,
mute and speaker.

They could be made Mac compatable with a firmware
change, USR just doesn't want to do it. They'd
rather people bought more expensive Mac modems. :P

I have an older USR Sportster 33.6 with DIP switches
and it works great with a Mac.
