Yeah!!!!!! And sometimes it answers  the call immediately sometimes
after the sixth ring. It's not good.

Are you serious ??? :-)))) I cannot count every PBX-time-delay on the
world. Class 2 modem knows the difference between data,fax ... doesn't it?
So what is the other solution ? e.g. put in command before handshake. BTW
which is the firs command after it picks up the line ??? ;-)
I think that will be the solution.
