Nick, AT&F1 is great, but not all modems treat that command
the same. I would recommend more of a generic reset command
such as ATZ. This may or may not work for the user but with
modems such as the Diamond Multimedia SupraFAXModem 288
AT&F1 puts the modem into Macintosh compatibility mode.
Try to use ATZ instead, since this command has been generalized
by modem manafacturers.
