My mom has the Arbitron rating system that dials out each night to report the TV shows she watches (or sleeps through...).
I saw a number of 1 min calls to an 800 number which repeated 4 or 5 times a day. She said Arbitron called to tell her they weren't getting the data, so I'm assuming her ATA doesn't like a 56k modem. Has anyone else experienced something like this?
I removed the device and installed it on her pots / dsl line and it's working again, but that's a limited use line and has a finite # of calls allowed per month before AT+T starts gouging, I mean charging extra.
