Has anyone experienced slow modem speeds w/XP? I have
dialed up using the same line and number with someone
using 2000 and he connects at 49 or 52 and I get 28 or
30...I have recently upgraded the 2000 computer to XP and
now he can not connect faster 28 or 32...same computer,
same modem, same provider. Is it an XP problem?
 
Kurt;
Check with your ISP. You may have the same #, but may be in a different
part of town where the phone lines may not be as good. When I had AOL (oh my
God) I could always connect at a faster speed than a friend who was a half a
mile away. We both had Win98.
