I am looking for a way to add MNP support to my existing Hayes compatible
modems, preferably through the use of a black box attached between modem
and computer. Any help on this matter will be appreciated.

Any help on this matter will be appreciated. I have such a "black box". It is a discontinued item made by Anchor Automation (of noisy, cheap modem fame) called the Signalman Error Free. It's a modem-sized box that goes between your computer and modem. It implements MNP of an unknown class (probably 3). It's a bit kludgy but it does work; I used it for a while until getting MNP5 modems myself. If you're interested, make me an offer. I think they cost $200 new. I bought this one at a flea market for $100. If you want to reach me voice about this, try evenings > 6PM EST at 718-667-1450.

The BLACK BOX company makes just such a "black box". I've seen it in their catalog for about $150, and as I recall it only implements MNP2 which is adequate for a clean link.
