| 31578 | 2002-01-17 05:47:00 | Hi, I dont have a dialup connection in front of me at the moment so I am only going from memory. Go into dial-up networking and right click on the connection. On one of the tabs there should be a drop down box which gives port speed, make sure it is set to the 57,600 bps. You can set this to higher but if it causes connection problems you may need to reduce it. |

| 31581 | 2002-01-17 23:13:00 | Lightning can damage your modem (maybe). Another thing is that Telecom sometimes installs a device called a 0+2 into residental phone lines. This enables them to get two customers onto a single cable pair when they are running short in a particular area. Unfortunately a 0+2 limits internet speed to 28.8 max. I would definately talk to Telecom and get your line tested / explain your problem. Sometimes they can be quite helpful | Guest (0) | ||
