Terry, I've had the best luck with 7.0.26. I'm soon opening a new POP, and will likely try the latest firmware (9.0.2) to see how it does. I haven't tried it yet because of a few stray 4000 boxes that are no longer supported. -- Troy Settle Pulaski Networks 540.994.4254 ** -----Original Message----- ** From: owner-ascend-users at max.bungi.com ** [mailto:owner-ascend-users at max.bungi.com]On Behalf Of Terry Lee, ** Publisher ** Sent: Saturday, June 16, 2001 3:15 PM ** To: ascend-users at bungi.com ** Subject: (ASCEND) MAX Connection Quality ** ** ** Hello Friends, ** ** We use MAX-6000's that were shipped with v7.0.3 throughout our ** service, and ** it seems like some people get new computers and suddenly start having ** trouble with our service.
