Well, since 3.7.2, I havent seen much improvment in terms of random
disconnects. Out of the total call volume, I see perhaps 80% proper
negotiated terminations. With 3.7.2, I would see perhaps 90%, however it
follows that it would increase since more people have PCM style modems.

normal 79.18% 50832/64198
User Request - Call Circuit Closed 11.91% 7649/64198
Lost Carrier 8.16% 5238/64198

Where you are, you use Ascend. How do the statistics compare ?
