I too have an LT Win 56K, purchased last Sat. with new puter. It won't connect
to local server for AOL, X2 or K56, although it's supposed to be V.90
compliant. I get online using local SprintNet @14,400 and it drops the
connection in a matter of minutes. It conflicts somewhere with my sound card
so can't use sound in AOL.
All in all it seems to be junk. Any advice to the contrary will certainly be
appreciated and I'm sure George will thank you too.

If I don't get some answers soon this is going back to the dealer tomorrow.
