To be honest (and this is all personal opinion) I'm really surprised Supra
survives. Their old cheapy v.32bis modems didn't have any error
correction or compression code in them and their v.34 modems barely
worked. Now they're slapping v.90 on them and I'm not the least bit
surprised they're not working right.

I'd talk to the local computer shop and convince them to trash the Supra
and go with something else.
