- I don't think the PPI modem does CLID, but this new ZyXEL U-1496E+ I
- have does do CLID, as well as FAX and mediocre voice to boot. Don't
- forget its selectable Identa*Ring cadence detection which allows it to
- recognize any combination of four ringing patterns.
-
- They even have special firmware for those nasty GTD-5 and NT DMS100
- switches which have apparently not followed standard specs when
- implementing CLID timing parameters.
-
- The voice is suitable for not much more than the cheapy "press 1 for
- fax, 2 for data modem, 3 to leave a voice message" setup that seems so
- popular these days.
-
- I don't sell ZyXELs, but thought I'd throw in my $0.02 to aid in the
- discussion of such fancy modems.
-
- You're gone ...
