        Can't help with the disapeering buttons.
As far as the modem problem goes there are 3 different 56k protocals in
use,
make shure your using the same one as your isp. also there are a variable
number
of a-d and d-a conversions between your phone and the phone companies
central
computer, 56k protocals take advantage of the situation in wich there is
only one
conversion, more than one and you'll only get 33.6 at best, which you
should be getting
performance that a 33.6k in the same instalation would get you unless
there's some
in the 56k negotion at some point causing the modem to use bad settings.
        Also some 'win-modems' won't work right without win95 or better because
they depend on windows to do some of the work the hardware in other
modems doese.
(they're set up like that to save the manufacturere money on the hardware
they install
on the modem, then they make a big deal about win95 compatablilty etc.)
        You might try disabling the 56k functionality and see if it works as
just a 33.6.
if it doese it's probably a compatibility isue with your isp or just
maybee the phone
companies equipment. and of course always check the manufacturer's web
site for
info on your problem and updated drivers.
