Here is a post from another BBS. Hopefully someone can help me!!! I uninstalled Dial Up Networking to try to fix this problem, and, now, Win98SE won't give the option to reinstall it!! UGHH... I really don't want to do a Windows reinstall.
ME: Ok, let me preface this with the fact that I have tried everything under the sun to get my modem(s) working. Initially, I had a LT Winmodem working fine. I decided to try out an external Creative Labs Blaster. I went ahead and installed with the other modem installed which was probably a faux pas, but anyway... I couldn't get the dang CL modem to work, so I went ahead and removed the LT Winmodem and its drivers. Finally, I got the CL modem to dial, but after the handshake, it will not get through the password phase @ msn. So... after checking every possible setting that I could (Networking, DUN, and modem settings), I removed the modem and tried to reinstall my Winmodem. Now, the Winmodem will complete the handshake, but, once connected, I cannot access any webpages. It seems that I can upload, but not download information. I know it's not a hardware problem, because I installed the Winmodem with success on my other box. Any and all suggestions would be appreciated!! UGH!
Ozrenn: So you are saying there IS data flow ?.. reinstall comms and dun - check your server types... should fix it no dramas
Me: Yes, there is minimal data flow downstream and normal dataflow upstream. I'll try your suggestions.
Me: OK.. I uninstalled DUN, went back to install it from Control Panel--->Add/Remove Programs--->Windows Setup--->Communications and, now, it only shows 3 options there, Microsoft Chat, HyperTerminal, and the Phone Dialer... NOTHING ELSE!! ARGGHHH! Anyone run into this problem before? BTW, I'm using Win98SE.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!
