   I was speaking metaphorically. I'm using Kppp. I can query the modem
 for ATI information, and it responds, so it's there, but if I send the
 init string ("ATZ"), it just hangs, and I get no "OK" (as far as I can tell,
 3Com/USR accepts standard modem commands).
   I'm wondering whether the problem could be with my configuration or with 
 my modem. 

   TIA,
