(see above) I MUST go -> back to a previous version of the BIOS... Will it harm the modem if -> I do so??? Earlier, you stated that you were running the latest version of the BIOS code and were having trouble. The version of the BIOS code you are running is far from being the latest. The suggestion was made that you would probably want to flash UP rather than BACK because the version of BIOS code you're currently running is already quite outdated.
