| 505694 | 2006-12-11 08:42:00 | Hmmm...interesting reading, I'd rather not edit the registry on this machine so I'll configure the mtu value of the modem on my machine running suse....will let you know how I get on... btw: thanks everyone for your input so far :) |

| 505695 | 2006-12-11 09:24:00 | Success!!! Of sorts anyways.... After altering the mtu value to 576 I still had no luck, but had noticed the mru value and wondered if it too may need a tweak....so I adjusted that to the setting for the slowest connection and viola! First I got a gmail login page (and that is a first!), so I imediatly opened another tab to yahoo.com to see if that worked too, low and behold it did, I even went so far as to login successfully....well why not ah. So the current situation is: I can display the login pages of gmail and yahoo. I can login to yahoo but not gmail...yet. That's a giant leap forward, thankyou very much indeed, meantime I'll play around with the values and keep you posted :) |

| 505696 | 2006-12-12 21:23:00 | I managed to get my hands on another one of these modems and low and behold it has the same problem. So it would seem to be a problem with the model rather than the unit. I would be very interested to hear from anyone who is actually using this model modem at present to get their thoughts on this issue. Thanks again to those who contributed, for all your time and effort, and hopefully some useful info has been obtained by those who've taken the time to read this thread too. |
