I just installed a US Robotics 5637 external modem on Ubuntu 8.1. It was detected without problem and shows dev/ttyACMO as the device on the Gnome PPP settings. The init string shows as
ATQ0 V1 E1 SO=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0

When I use it to dial a number, it connects to the number but also sounds a beep about every second or so that I think may be related to making a fax call. I'm a bit of newbie at this, so I'm not sure what it is.

Is there some way to avoid this beep?
TIA
