Yes, there is an incompatibility between GeoPort and System 7.5 where the machine may freeze when it attempts to dial. GeoPort for Power Macintosh 1.0 and 1.0.1 will function with System 7.5, but there are outstanding bugs customers need to work around:
* 1.0 has two problems with virtual memory:
- Network file transfers will fail when Virtual Memory (VM) is on.
- Data connections will fail when VM is on.
* 1.0 and 1.0.1 will crash the computer on restart if there are any Faxes
waiting to be sent in the Waiting to be Faxed folder.
* The modem speaker must be turned off at all times through the Express
Modem control panel to prevent intermittent crashing.
