465372 2006-06-23 05:09:00 Yeah that's what I was trying to say in my previous post. roddy_boy (4115)
465373 2006-06-23 05:43:00 Modems are made to conform to a standard. If they don't conform to the standard, they don't work. V90 and V92 specify a maximum up speed of 33.6 kbps, and 56kbps down.

If your modem tried to exceed 33.6 kbps, the exchange end couldn't receive it. If the exchange end tried to exceed 56 kbps, your modem couldn't receive it.

Any higher line transmission speeds reported by software are "artefacts". They are not real.

I know it's not fair. Tough. The real world is like that.

465374 2006-06-24 00:55:00 Ok.

Another problem with my stupid modem. I am trying to connect to MSN and it keeps saying the gateway is offline. How do I get it online? Also, Hotmail.com wont work logging in.

465375 2006-06-24 02:45:00 Hello there. My sister had been experiencing that problem yesterday night; my MSN Messenger and Windows Live Mail worked fine, though. I suggest you wait for a few hours, allowing the Microsoft staff to fix the problem, otherwise it wouldn't do you any good either if you were to keep on attempting to sign in / check your Hotmail.

Cheers :)
