Many factors influence modem connection speed:

❑

Telephone line noise.

❑

Incompatibility with other telephone equipment such as fax machines or 
other modems. 

❑

Internet Service Providers (ISP) connection capability may vary.

If you think your modem is not connecting properly to other PC-based modems, 
fax machines, or your ISP, check the following: 

❑

Contact your telephone company and ask them to verify that your telephone 
line is free from line noise.

❑

If your problem is fax-related, check that there are no problems with the fax 
machine you are calling and that it is compatible with fax modems.

❑

For optimum performance, verify that your ISP point of presence (POP) 
telephone number is compliant with V.90 standards.

❑

If you are having a problem connecting with your ISP, check that they are 
not experiencing technical problems.

❑

Try connecting your modem through another telephone line, if available.
