Modem communication problems
LockedOlder ATX – MS 5169 Rev. 3 mobo flashed to most current update – v 3.3, AMD K6-2 450, 256mb PC100 Ram, Maxtor 10GB, W98SE, Intel 536 EP modem, Lexmark z32 USB printer, SBPCI 128 sound board, SIS 6326 video card, Realtek 8029(AS) PCI NIC, HP 9510i CDRW.
What settings in bios or where-ever will cause a communication delay in any operation of the modem?
Connection is rarely a problem but once connected at usually 46kbps or 50.7kbps the computer acts as if the modem has lost handshake but not connection for from 40 seconds to up to 3 minutes. There is neither upload or download during this time and if immediately disconnected manually the thing acts as if DUN has entered an endless loop until the basic time has past. Different settings have been tried without effect.
Not line noise. Tried “bullet-proof” modems without success. NOT browser or OS problem. Confirmed many times. Thanks.
