Hello Liam
I get 45333 consistently when I dial my ISP's main # and 46666 everytime I
connect to the secondary number, which I'm not supposed to use.
>From what I was told, it is the main number uses Cisco modems and the
secondary uses USRs and are reserved for people who'se modems refuse to talk
to the Ciscos.
