can someone help please

Thanks for the offer Narzy but I think Ill pass, soon as we get RedHat 7.0 in at work Im gonna burn a copy and install it at home and that winmodem wouldn't work very well in Linux.
 
I think some winmodems have drivers for linux. I'm not sure on this though since I don't use them.🙂
 
Mindless,

About the only suggestion that I might add is to check on the condition of your (physical) line. My solution to this in the past was that I simply ran a new dedicated length of nice, pristine CAT5 all the way from the telco demark on the back of my house right up to the &quot;computer area&quot; <-It can hardly be called a computer desk now... it's more of a region of the house. 😉 and used one pair for my voice line and one for my data line. I consistently gained a few Kbps of connect speed immediately and now I'm darn sure that if there's connection problems, it's not me, but rather the telco or the ISP.

Other than that, I'll make the offer of an ISA Zoom Telephonics 28.8 with a Rockwell chipset that you can use. Keep it for testing or just well.... keep it if you like. Let me know.

The USR based modem I mentioned runs about $40-$50 not $150.🙂

I don't know if your interested in buying another modem, but I've still got that old Rockwell hardware modem I mentioned in the other thread if you want to give it a try.😀
 
Thatks for all the modem offers guys 😀 Knew I could count on the distributed gang to help out 😀

But as I just posted in the other thread a few minutes ago, its the lines and Im guessing past my house. The connection is crap during the day (which is when Im home) but at night works fine, or at least it did right before I left for work. Im going to have to contact SW Bell about getting everything checked out I guess.
