I have had many months of poor connections or even lack of connections and engaged tones, that was until I bought an external 3 COM [previously US Robotics] modem.
The modem was a good 20 pounds more expensive than all of the other types of model I would usually buy.
Well it is the best extra money I have ever spent.
I suddenly found myself conencting to all of the ISP's that I couldn't in the past. I was sure it was them, but it was my orginal modem.
I even changed the old modem back to see if it was a lucky day or sometihng, but still had problems with the old modem.
The 3COM modem is the best modem you can buy for a PC.
