I have a USR Sportster Voice modem 56K internal and it works flawlessly. My 
FAX server is using a Telebit Worldblazer that occasionally gets incomplete 
fax sends so I do a resend using the USR and that has been successful too. 
The USR reports itself as a Class 2.0 Fax so they haven't overun the ROMS 
with code to support 56K either as a number of the Rockwell chipset vendors 
have done.
