Caller ID (CID) with ring type B with USR voice modems

 Hi,

 this is not related to mgetty, but rather to USR products.

 I have a USR voice 56k external, and am trying to get CID with ring
type B. I'm in Canada, signed up to "Bell Canada" phone service, which I
hope means that the ring types do have proper lengths.

 When I go into minicom and watch everything that goes through the
modem, I do see the called ID information when my primary phone number is
rung (ring type A). But when somebody calls the secondary number
(different ring pattern -- "type B" ring), the caller ID doesn't show up.
It's clearly a USR modem bug.

 Now what I'm trying to get to : 

 Does anybody know of a USR 33.6 or 56k internal or external that would
recognize and report the called ID with ring type B ?


 Thanx,

  Jan
