We are experiencing exactly the same problems with a USR Courier modem.
Are these problems you are experiencing persistent or transient? Over here,
they occur transiently; it usually works, but ever so often the modem
seems to get confused somehow, refusing to dial out. The problems will
disappear as soon as the modem is turned off and on again. What happens
when you talk to the modem using cu or minicom and try to dial out?
Try something like "ATE1Q0Dxxxx" and see what happens. When our modem
gets confused, it will always respond with "ERROR". Obviously the
problem is not caused by Hylafax, but rather by a bug in the modem firmware.

Has anyone else experienced these problems? Any ideas on what might be
at fault?

Our firmware revision is:

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
	Lukas.
