I have used a Olitec SmartMemory, and it works very good. No problem.

Lee,
Thanks for the info.
You were right !
I changed my config file for my USR FaxModem, (I turned it into a Class 1
modem),
and it works fine... no errors left...
I read also some articles on modems lies about their capacities,
and it seems USR Faxmodem is NOT a real Class 2.0 modem ...
So next time i'll choose other model...
what one would be the best for Hylafax ?? Zyxel ? MultiTech ?
What about some external french local models (trademarks : Olitec,
Kortex) ? These are easily available here,
but are they usable (with Hylafax, i mean) ?
