Once upon a time Howard Leadmon shaped the electrons to say...
>1) If M$-STAC is supposed to be supported, why dosen't it work?

I don't know. We have used Win95 boxes to dial into PM-3s - and that,
of course, IS MS-STAC (which is Stac LZA Option 4, the RFC is Option 3)
and it works.

>2) Why am I seeing connection hangs when using compression that requires
> a complete link reset?

I really can't say. I've been running compression in my OR to the PM-3
in the office for months now, and I've never had a hang.

>3) Is the ComOS 3.5.1b20 incomplete in regards to supporting this card
> and the various STAC modes, or should I expect to continue to see the

AFAIK it is complete.

We tested against Ascend, Cisco, and many other brands - it all checked out.

We even took part in a Stac bakeoff recently and didn't experience problems.
