Try +MS=V34 or -V90=0
Difficult without knowing the exact modem model but one of those two should work.

Reduce the max port speed to 38400 as well.

170602 2003-08-26 09:08:00 If it is a USB modem then it could be difficult as finding extra setting for these modems is not easy .
Do you know the make and model, is there any information on the modem body itself .

Try reducing the max port speed first .

For Win 95 98 ME
Double-click on My Computer, then double-click on Dial-Up Networking .
Right-click on the ISP connection icon and choose Properties .
Click the Configure button .
Change maximum speed to 57600
Click the Connection tab .
Click the Advanced button .
In "Extra settings, delete anything here
Click OK to save changes .



For Win XP
Start/ control panels/ phone and modem options
Click on Modem tab and then Properties
Click on Modem tab and change Max port speed to 57600
Click on Advanced
In the Extra initialization commands box delete any setting here
Click OK and OK again

170603 2003-08-26 10:31:00 So it has nothing to do with your firewall??? Maybe you have the "never dial a connection" box ticked by accident. Try going into internet properties then click the connection tab and make sure the "always dial my default connection" box is checked. Just a longshot, I know... dotcommander (4338)
170604 2003-09-03 06:39:00 Thanks Jim B,
That first string seems to work a treat
I have got it on my desktop as +ms=v34,1 but that didn't work
on the laptop. What is the difference with the ",1"?

170605 2003-09-03 07:22:00 The "1" sets your modem to Automode

If you want to check further into modem commands the following is from
www.modemsite.com

The format is: +MS=<modulation>,<automode>,<min tx rate>,<max tx rate>,<min rx rate>,<max rx rate>
If any parameters are omitted, commas must be used

You can disable 56k by selecting V.34 modulation:
AT+MS=V34
You can force V.90: AT+MS=V90,0 AT+MS=V90,0
You can force K56Flex: AT+MS=K56,0 AT+MS=K56,0
You can limit the connection rate by specifying lower & upper limits as the 5th & 6th parameter:
AT+MS=V90,0,,,44000,52000 - specifies V.90 between 44k & 52k
[Note: The examples above have the automode parameter set to zero; if you replace this with 1 or a comma, the modem will "prefer" the modulation selected, but may use V.90 or K56Flex under some circumstances even if it is not "preferred".]
