Thus my question....how do you get it to run properly? To my
knowledge, the modem is not a windows-only modem and I've never had
to run initialization software before. It WAS working until the last
two times I turned on my laptop and then all of a sudden it acts like
something else is using the modem. Could the modem have locked into
some state that causes this?
