- I hope someone will be able to help me. I don't know what else to do.
- I've had an internet connection at home for about six months now and
- it's been a miserable six months. I can't enjoy this one bit. At
- first I was having terrible problems with strings of garbage and
- scrambling text. It turned out that error correction wasn't turned
- on so I fixed that. Error correction was not the default. I've had
- the phone company here many times trying to correct the problem of
- static, but now that there's no static I'm still experiencing major
- problems and I simply don't know what else to do. I don't experience
- problems with strings of garbage anymore, now it just gets extremely
- slow and I'm always getting booted out. You don't know how many times
- I've tried to compose a letter, only to hear a click and get "NO CARRIER"
- at the bottom of the screen. I could cry! Sometimes I can't even get
- to my inbox, I get booted out right then. It gets so slow, I can
- execute a command and then go brush my teeth or something waiting for
- it be executed. Sometimes as I'm typing it takes seconds for the
- characters to show up on the screen. I know I'll be getting booted out
- shortly.
-
- I have a ZOOM 14.4 modem and the ini string is:
- at&f+H11S95=007M1L2S0=0S7=45
-
- I'm ready to give up. Sometimes I can't even get a connection, it boots
- me out before then. I'm sick and tired of getting booted out constantly!
