I'm starting to get annoyed, every game I play online I always have pings of over 600 when I play online on my 56k modem! I have tried your modem and DUN guide, but it didn't help. Please someone help me!!!

Hi mate,

"You have been Timed" !

The PCI56RVP is possibly, nay definately, the worst modem i have ever had the displeasure to own. And i agree completely - it is useless for online gaming.

Unfortunately i also bought my PC from Time and got the exact same modem with it. Hell - that's basically why i'm here today as i had to find out loads about modems to figure out what the problem was.

So......if you want to play online games then you will have to buy a new modem. There are some suggestions on my website.

Sorry, i know it's dissapointing when you've just shelled out loads of dosh :(

Cheers
Slime

Can you recommend a modem? I was thinking the 3com gaming modem, but it is not out in this country yet.
