| old ridge Tl Posts: 4 Canada | Posted - 6/26/2001 4:45:13 PM    In connecting to the internet I get at least 28.8 on each of the computers but connecting the two via the same phone lines I get between 9 and 12. Any suggestions?? |
| v.Richard Tl Posts: 6222 USA | Posted - 6/27/2001 9:47:10 AM  What software are you using to connect the 2? What init string? When connecting 2 client modems, I suggest use init string that disables 56k since 2 client modems cannot establish 56k connect - If you still get low rates, examine/post post-call diagnostics Aloha, |
| old ridge Tl Posts: 4 Canada | Posted - 6/28/2001 7:32:12 AM I am connecting over the phone lines in both cases. With the ati6i11y11 command I get: U.S. Robotics 56K Voice INT Link Diagnostics...

| v.Richard Tl Posts: 6222 USA | Posted - 6/30/2001 6:39:03 PM What is it you mean when you say 'when connecting the 2 with the same phone line.....?' Are you trying to use 2 modems on 1 phone line at the same time? In any event, your y11 results would indicate you are not on a 56k-capable line, and you should disable 56k on the modem. Aloha, |

Then, one by one, add a phone (or accessory)back on and see what happens. Possibly one or more phones and/or accessory is pulling too much from the line. Check the "REN" number on the phone/accessory A year ago, I just purchaed a dialer and connicted to the phone line. My speed dropped to about 26k. When I took it off , it went back to about 49k. The Ren number was 1.8b. Too high!. Should be less than 1. Also, if you are only getting 28k on a 56k modem, possible your phone line is not capable of higher speeds due to line conditions and being too far from the central office. kodacolor |
