&gt;&gt;Black-listing prevents modems from running-up telephone-bills<br />
<br />
¿What if I want to do so? ¿What if number is busy?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
&gt;&gt;imagine if it called a long-distance number a thousand times! <br />
<br />
¡¡ But that's *MY* decision !!<br />
<br />
I simply CAN NOT believe this... ~~~&gt;:(<br />

I have a diamond supraSSt 56i pro DFV modem and when trying to connect to the internet if it takes more than 15 attempts my modem won't respond and have to restart my computer to get it to reconize my modem again. This is annoying with free hours in the UK it can take more then 15 attempts to connect.<br />
<br />
I contacted Diamond and was told 'We as modem manufacturer have a legal obligation to build this into a modem' I find this hard to believe that all modems won't redial after 15 attempts. Can someone confirm this is true or have I been given false information

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.
