A flash-upgradeable 2 MB ROM 56K chipset that simultaneously supports both V.90 and K56FlexTM. Voice [speakerphone] capable [depends on OEM implementation]. Desktop & internal versions available. Some models show the ati6 response in ati7 instead.

Caution! Make sure that the flash upgrade is for the correct model. See Media Force for a cautionary tale. The better flashes check for the correct chipset before going ahead, & this chipset has many variants.
Flash "hangs" at 91% Go and make a cup of tea - the flashing process must not be interrupted or the modem will be useless, permanently. This behaviour is normal & it normally goes to completion in a few minutes.
UK users of the early Diamond SupraExpress 56e Pro firmware got reliable connections by changing the country setting - try the one of the following in Extra Settings: "AT*NC152" [no quotes - Switzerland] or "AT*NC72" [no quotes - Ireland] or "AT*NC102" [no quotes - Netherlands].
Don't forget the drivers! Upgrading is often a 2-stage process:

    1 flash-upgrade the modem
    2 update the computer drivers
      Windows - INF file - the modem in Dial-Up Networking Properties (General page) will need changing if an upgrade causes a name change.
