U.S. ROBOTICS USR5633A 56K USB Faxmodem Review

This little modem, was supposed to be jewel of the dial-up modem range.Capable of handling the new v.92 standard among other things.

Plugging in was not point and click, and drivers needed to be installed first.After which i unsuccessfully got the thing working with my isp.

eventually after much sweat and altering of the myriad of settings - which makes it difficult to navigate, time consuming and unless you're a techie, useless - got connected at 12 kb/s.I checked the line, and computer settings, but no luck at increasing the bandwidth.

The hype of such a modem has gone to the heads of its maker - it doesn't work properly, and needs to be corrected.

All in all it was a shocking disappointment.On the positive side, the fax part of the modem works beautifully with no hassle whatsoever - how strange?
