- This may have been dealt with before, but as I am new to this group I
- would appreciate your help.
- I have a Sportster Vi 28.8 internal on a 486DX2, Win3.1; and I have
- tremendous problems downloading files from AOL.
- Log-on is usually 26400 which is not bad for a Manhattan phone line,
- but when it comes to downloading files it behaves as though it were at
- 2400 baud.
- I have had no luck with USR - they seem to ignore the various messages
- and don't want to answer, plus every suggestion AOL gives me makes no
- difference.
- Therefore could anyone here recommend some init. strings that might
- solve this problem.
- Downloading through modem is no problem - the problem seems to be
- peculiar to AOL.
- Many thanks for your help.
