Unfortunately, that version hasn't been released yet.  The really weird
thing about IOS for access servers is that often we'll settle on a version
that works great at the time.  Several months go by, and suddenly that
version that was rock solid is crashing all over the place.
c5300-is-mz.120-4.XJ4.bin was great for a while...then started having this
problem.  I'd suggest trying the latest c5300-is-mz.121.  It seems to work
well, but has some really annoying snmp bugs you're unlikely to run into.

Modem code is usually bundled with IOS...but it's usually some crusty old
version.  sho mod ver will tell you what you're running.  You probably
want to be running 2.7.3.0.
