| 119569 | 2003-02-09 09:34:00 | the catch with it is when you get an easly compressable download the modem can download it at 50k, but because it can only send it to the pc at 38k it has to stop downloading and wait for the pc to catch up which makes stringing it a little pointless. | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 119570 | 2003-02-09 09:50:00 | i'll eat my shorts man! i just tried various settings on and found NO difference what so ever. even setting it to 9600 didn't slow it down. makes me wonder why MS even put that setting in ?:| |

| 119571 | 2003-02-09 09:53:00 | Hi farmdude Have a look at this www.modem-help.co.uk to read up about modems, init strings, telco's, etc. You'll also find intersting stuff on the different Rockwell chips and modem makers. cheers Murray P |

| 119574 | 2003-02-09 10:14:00 | Sounds as if your phone lines are really bad plus you have electric fence problems. If cost is not a problem it might be worthwhile to consider the Dynalink external rural modem. www.dynalink.co.nz |
