K56 modem connection problems

I know this has been discussed in the list before, but I am having
problems getting 56K modems to connect to my PM3. I am running a PM3 on 2
PRI lines using ComOS 3.5c6 I had a user try to connect with a Rockwell
56K modem and it wouldn't negotiate a lower speed. So I tried the init
string that was posted here on the list (by jrowley@bitstorm.com -
+ms11,1,14400,33600), but the modem would still not negotiate.

Do I need to upgrade my version of ComOS to 3.5.1b20 to get 56K modems to
connect?

If so, has anyone had connection problems with other modems under
3.5.1b20? (I remember reading someone having a problem with HSP modems)

Also, how stable is 3.5.1b20? I have run some eariler ComOS betas and
the PM3 crashed every couple of hours.

Thanks in advance,
