Really? Oh no, I hate that kind club... :(

Yes, I've also tried several timeouts settings and Init String without
success. :(

Well, I'll try these settings this week, but I don't think I'll have
more success than you. :( BTW, I've successfully used this modem for
two weeks with a Windows 98/WinFax box. So the modem is OK, and I'm
sure both my serial.device and gvpser.device work well. The problem
must be in the init string and in the way STFax handle the voice mode.
I'm sure with a little bit of work Simone and us could find a way to
better handle the U.S. Robotics voice modems.
Simone? Do you need testors to enhance STFax U.S. Robotics handling and
experiment voice support for this modem? I'm ready to help you if you
need!
Thank you very much for your help Heinz.
Kind regards,
