Re: THINKPAD 535E AND MWAVE QUESTION

IBM doesn't need to, the MWave is actually quite good about not
producing protocol violations and even dealing with some of those
in other modems, but this would be a bit much as the Lucent end
just hangs and there is no for-sure way to get it going again
from the other end.  For what it's worth the MWave is much better
than many other modems with respect to this problem..

Lucent is trying to fix their code though - I've even loaned a
modem (a Telebit) which can generate these errors at will - but
so far they've yet to get it nailed down.  Note well many other
vendors' 56k firmware updates are hanging in limbo waiting on
this very same thing.  I know immense pressure has been applied
(by friends of mine that own dozens of PM3s) but so far without
any success.
