Jay,
Could you post (or have you posted) the config file for the 5600ZDX?
I've seen many variations of config files for the 5600ZDX but no one has
said their's was a stable config for this modem. Yours seems to be.
Thanks!

I can testify to this, yes it is.  I've got a couple of fairly high
traffic boxen, one doing over 100 7 page jobs every weekday, that's
been running for the last 3 months or more with only one small glitch.

That only takes one modem, by the way, 8 is the deepest I've ever seen
the send queue get.

I use MultiTech 2834ZDX and 5600ZDX models; if you're going production,
the extra 50 bucks or so is worth it... but frankly, *any* Multitech
modem that's FAX capable should be rock steady, and I suspect the older
large case ones would be pretty cheap on the used market.

Hmmm.. I don't recognize that specific bug (failure to hang up at end),
but as long as you're running those USR's in class 1... (I was long a
class 2 booster... but I had my mind changed for me; thanks Dmitry.)

Cheers,
