Hi;
I recently replaced my dial up modem with a new one. It is a Broadxent v.90. It is pretty much the same as my Conexent which went bad. My problem is that I cannot get quite the same download speed as I did with the old one. The old modem gave me 3.00 to 3.50 kbps. I can barely get 2.0 out of the new one. It starts high, like around 4.5,but goes down quickly. I know it is not the phone line because I have a laptop and get over 4.0 with the same phone line on it. It dosen't matter where I have the modem speed set to in the software. 57600 or 115200, I get the same pathetic slow download speed. I would be very happy to get it back to at least a 3.0 like my old one. Would appreciate any help! My system is self built Duron 800 mhz 185 mg RAM. Please don't bring up broadband! I KNOW it's faster but the price is out of the question for the time being. Thanks.
