After returning from an extended BBQ party somewhere in Iraq, I found my limited knowledge of comp. tweaking was even more limited now. Used to connect at 45000, up to occasionly 50000.
Now it's often 40-43, never higher than 45000.
I'm using Cablenut & TCP/IP Optimizer with same settings as before, same ISP, same phone#, & all that.
Modem is different, but it SHOULD be as good, or better. Old one was USRobotic 56K/V.90 hardware style--new one is SmartLink 56K/V.92 software style. At least that's what the SL website said.
Drivers are all updated.
Old OS was W98SE, 500MCeleron--new one is WXP-H, Athlon 2200+.
The final tweak on the old one to achieve the higher con. speed was with a (I think) INIT string. But I can't remember for sure, & certainly can't remember the exact string.
Anybody got any ideas? All comments are welcome. THX in advance.
