Hi, Ray:
Yes, it was the H8NTAI-32857-M5-E you mentioned. You are intuitive.
I didn't know which sticker had the precise data to identify
the modem. I don't remember who the manufacturer is. I could dig up
the email, I guess.
After digging up some data on this modem I accepted that the
manufacturer really was not
blame and that the packager was 'at fault'. It was mis-packaged. I
bought it at a very
small computer show that visits my area about each 4 months. I probably
could have tried
to get a refund, but even for a winmodem, it was a good price. I just
gave it to my son
who has a windows95 system. I have since bought a ISA v.90 modem and
put it in my linux
IP-Masquerade computer. I 'always' get a 49333 download connection and
I an quite happy
with this ISA modem.
The FCC sticker matches what you sent:
V1456VQH-R3
FCC NO. H8NTAI-32857-M5-E
P/N:92163497
Regards, Chuck

Yup.
