it's called the V.Everything because it supported everything, in fact the only thing it doesn't support that came out since then is the V.92 protocol. Security including ringback security - no problem. it's a hell of a piece of kit. The saying was 'If a Courier modem can't connect, it's not the Courier's fault' They also supported upwards speed negotiation. If they retrained on the line then they would seek the fastest stable speed. Most modems only retrained downwards. Amazon still list them between 192 and 322.
