Hello fellow posters, well let me get straight to the problem. You i have a problem with the connection of my modem heres are its specks:
Telepath 56k for windows
GTE is my ISP and they support x2 and v.90
I bought my computer from an OEM (Gateway) in 97'. When i originally started connecting i only got up to 28.8k then a bout a year later in 98' i learned about modem strings and i was getting speeds no slower than 49.3k and no faster than 50.3k. Now it seems this month that my modem hardly ever gets above 28.8 sometimes if im lucky 40.3k, even when i tried just various other modem strings for US robotic modems. I was wondering if anyone had a viable solution for me. Broadband is not an option (cuse nothing is offered in my area). Is it my ISP or should I buy another modem or am i just stuck with 28.8k/sec?
P.S. getting the hightest connection rate possible really does matter to me cuse i download a lot and now it takes twice as long as usual to download large mb files.
