| 225342 | 2004-03-27 03:21:00 | Addendum to my previous post. Some of the wiseheads around might be able to suggest a CPU speed above which a PCI modem wouldn't significantly tax the system. |

Im running k6 200mhz 64 edo ram.hmm a big difference in speed rite? She doesn't have sky digital.I have it though.its plugged into a different wall plug outside the lounge. IM in a different room. She is running a pci modem i think.My modem plugs into a com port not a usb port. I think there's not much difference if the modem uses usb port am i correct? |

This is quite easy to do, and can be done two different ways. Underneath the post you wish to reply to, hit "Reply". Above your text box you will see an link for Quote original. Clicking on that will duplicate the other persons post you are replying to, but each line will start with a > arrow. You do not need to quote the entire post, so just delete the un-necessary portions leaving the sentence/paragraph which pertains to your additional comments. If you wish to add comments that involves more than one person's post, you can simply copy and paste the lines from their posts into yours, but manually type an > arrow yourself at the front of each line or paragraph. If you have two duplicate windows/tabs open for the same thread, this makes it easy to copy from one browser window/tab and paste into the browser window/tab containing your reply box. This way one post can cover a variety of questions/comments/posts without having to make multiple posts to answer each individual person and you can still view the other thread in its entirety whilst replying. A single > will turn the quoted text purple > purple > > two arrows will turn the text green > > > and three arrows blue. Always make sure you use the Preview button to make sure you have the > arrows displaying the quoted portion correctly. |

| 225351 | 2004-03-27 08:37:00 | Hey yingxuan, Testing different settings might work, external modems I find way better than internal. You could try lowering her maximum port speed to 57600 and testing it. If it's worse you can go back to 115200. Sometimes even lowering it than 57600 might have better performance. Trial and error testing. How many phone devices does she have? Having a number of them as well as sharing them off a jack point can lower performance. The extension may degrade the performance as well. If possible, update the drivers, this sometimes can help. There's probably a lot more you can do to test it out. Noel Nosivad |
