Yes they did, but the USR shit all over the others. Being able after the
connection to print out the call stat's was a great way to debug issues.
(ATI + a number was that feature)

I ran Netcomm's as well before getting a courier (Had two in the end).
Don't get me wrong, the Netcomm was a great modem (Got mine on sysop
discount. Can't rember the speed though), but the USR's performed so much
better.

I became well known around the local computer shop's as the guy to call
when a customer was having modem issues. #-)
