Just bought a Diamond express 56k internal modem. It says I've installed it properly but when I connect it is so slow I can barely access the web. I've changed all the settings to suit and deleted and uninstalled my old modem (Rockwell). I really am stuck. I did tweak my old Rockwell modem but it was so long ago I don't know what settings I changed or anything. Please help.

Hi,

Configure it as my webby shows (URL in my signature). If that doesn't cure it then p[ost back here with as much detail as you can (modem version, drivers used, connection speed, ISP used etc etc etc).

Cheers
Slime

Cheers for the help Konan555 and COMMANDANT PEACOCK ;) Good stuff.

Slime m8: Belly has bought and set-up his modem as per your web-site, but still no luck. He's gonna check his connection speed tonight and report back.
His ISP (apart from WP) is Freeserve, but neither are running better than the other.

I would uninstall the modem via Add/remove Software.

Remove DUN via Add/remove>Windows Setup

Put DUN back on.

Reinstall the modem.

Reboot betwwen each of the stages and try it out again.

Hope this helps
