| 54358 | 2002-06-14 05:21:00 | I have a SwannSmart V90 56K external modem. Connection speed - read with the cursor over the connection icon - reads 115200bps, but I am well aware that this is not the actual data transfer speed on line. Does any one know what setting change (presumably to the modem commands)I can make in order to indicate the actual speed of the connection? |

You need to install / configure the right driver support for the modem and OS. try the following url: www.swann.com.au Cheers, Babe. |
