Control panel / modems / properties / advanced. Type ATM0 (zero) in the dialog box. Result, silence!

Tried it myself and you will find a few others had the same situation. Have you been into your computer and read the telepermit sticker yet! I say throw the thing out and get a real modem. PoWa (203)

Been using the fujitsu driver for a year now since I installed XP with no problems. Its about the only driver that doesnt make the continuous screeching noise. It seems to have solved "somebody"s probs too.

179330 2003-10-04 19:32:00 Fishb8, will doing that also shut off the dialing sound too?

PoWa, so far no problems. I think it's been about a week since sparky told me about the fujitsu driver, and I haven't seen any system instability yet.

179331 2003-10-05 01:51:00 Ah ok now worries, if it works for you, then definitely keep it. But for me I think the modem was ok for a few weeks, then it started getting slower and slower, frequent disconnects, then it absolutely refused to connect to the net at all.

ATM0 string will work for most, but these conexant modems are a real dog and it didn't work for me :) GL
