Who here is good with modems?

I actually installed my modem correctly i think. I mean damn windows 2000 prof detects it.

Just wont connect to the net. Either says no dial tone or no answer.

Any ideas?

I have had Robbie checkin it out and he ran away in frustration. Can't use windows prof at all ^^

Try Unticking "Wait for dialtone before Dialing"
Sometimes does the trick [Blocked image]
What error does the modem give you when it fails to connect?

yea I did that dial tone thing

it says error 603 i think failed to find a dial tone

make sure connected to phone line etc etc

Error 603 The caller Buffer is too small. Restart yourcomputer....

Internal or external Modem?
If internal try moving it to a different PCI slot. Also double check that its plugged in n stuff.

annoying thing is it worked on ME

Yea thanks

Hey while im here ask your sister if shes gonna come to the vic with us on Friday night my mobile phone is broken and I dont have her number anymore.
Tell her it's cause Bradley finished his exams

what brand of modem is it? might be able to use an init string to fake it into ignoring the dialtone - WinLT and some conexant/rockwell modems were known for that..

Sounds similar to a small problem I once had... Install the original driver that cam on the installation disk for Windows 2K, or if not available, the Windows NT version. ^_^

This may sound dumb, but I have the prob occasionally.. Wiggle the phone line connection.. Some RJ plugs click in, but the pins dont line up..

Thanks for all your help but...somehow i fixed it myself.

I cracked the shits at the whole thing (/me not on internet = very insane girl)
So I went into all the advanced modem connections and well changed everything. Even though I didnt understand any of it.
Something worked cause Im back online.
Cept some cookie control is keepin me from loggin into the forum (im at my friends house) I can read it just not log in.

Anyone interesting add me to your msn

Glad it worked..

Try deleting your temporary internet files folder in the windows directory and make sure you nuke all them pesky cookies, you should be able to log in then
