How about this for starters:

Bad examples:
1. USR Sportster 33.6
3/8/97 , Flash Rev. 4.1.55
DSP Date 3/8/97, DSP Rev 10.3.55
2. USR Sportster X2
2/20/97, EPROM Rev. 4.0.1
DSP Date 2/20/97, DSP Rev 10.2.1
3. USR Sportster 56k (not X2)
3/8/97 , Flash Rev. 4.1.55
DSP Date 3/8/97. DSP Rev 10.3.55
4. USR PCMCIA X2 (XJ/CC1560)
Model XJ1560
Older Sportster 28.8 seems to be okay.
