My new modem (USR 5686D) attempts a V.92 connection to
my ISP, the modem re-negotiates, and the eventual initial connect speed is 28.8K. My old modem would regularly get 52+K. Actual throughput is similar with the 2 modems (about 5 KB/s).

When V.92 fails, does the modem attempt to negotiate a V.90 connection, or does it drop down to slower inital connetion speed?

Try disabling V.92 -
I think you can do it with
+MS=V90

Aloha,

Thanks for the reply. I'll give that a try.

I wasn't really asking how to solve the problem, so much as I was trying to get general information on how the modem "steps down" its requests for speed during re-negotiation. It doesn't seem to ask for V.90 after V.92 fails; I'm trying to find out if that is, in fact, the case. I haven't found any answers in the documentation or web.

Hey Richard,
I'd like to try that as well. Where do you go to change the value?

Hi i tried that string +ms=v92.My modem would not connect.It would if i changed the v92 to v90.USR tech support say there is no such string as +MS=V92 for their modems.I found out my problems, it was cause it did the flash.A little cheap win modem outperformed my 3cp510a after i did the upgrade.That winmodem also connected at 52 with a v.92 connection.My suggestion is to buy another modem.I would suggest this one http://www.actiontec.com/products/modems/92pci/92pci_features.html

Thank you, Charles. I will try adding that to extra settings. (in XP, that is under the Advanced tab--no Connections tab)

I have the External V92 FaxModem, also. As far as I know,there's no way to really disable V92. If you had previously made a V92 connect, it frankly refuses to disable it!

By the way, V92 steps down to V34, NOT v90
