(ASCEND) Dynamic BW not working on P75



Hi listers.  In a previous post I asked if anyone was having problems
with dynamic bandwidth allocation on their P75 running 5.1A  Today,
Ascend confirmed my suspicion and opened a bug report.  Below is a copy
of my email exchange.

> I have run into one problem however.  I am using MP+ to access my ISP

> since installing 5.1A, the P75 no longer waits AddPers seconds before
