Hi,
I am not able to get a landline telephone so telefonica (Spain) have supplied a "wireless connection" for my phone I am trying to connect my computer but there is a long delay (about 15 seconds) from when the dial finishes and the server at the other end answers, my computer will not connect. I have taken the computer to someone with a land line and it works perfectly. I am using Windows ME
I would be grateful if someone can help !!
Thanks
Clive

It could be more than the delay - the wireless connection may introduce other problems for dial-up modems; BUT - you can change the amount of time the modem waits before giving up with no carrier - this can be set in connectoid properties, or via direct command (initialization) to modem:
AT s7 = # - # of seconds modem waits for carrier after dialing
I would suggest using Hyperterminal connected directly to modem com port for testing as you may need to introduce other protocol or speed limit commands in order to get a connection.
