| 159965 | 2003-07-29 23:56:00 | what modem did you have in the old pc? you may have had a 3k modem or a 56k which was strung down to a 33k which logs on far quicker than a 56k modem does. | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 159966 | 2003-07-30 00:28:00 | You can check your ISP in comparison to other ISPs, by pinging from the USA or elsewhere to their website, which for most ISPs is located where their dialup terminates. This will expose they international connectivity. Try from here (http://lg.conxion.net/) and select ping. You may get some interesting results. |
