Hey Brother,

I had the same problem before but now I am having none of kind of these problem. All I did was backed up my data, reinstalled my windows and then reinstalled the drivers, now I am enjoying the best of service with dial up speed of 53.6 kbps, which is comparatively low mosh, but good, why don't you try this. I know it will help you out.

Or either you can just simply uninstall the modem driver, unplug the connection and then re-start your system, install the driver and then plug in the connection and try. I would not assure you that It works but I feel that it would work too, as once I did in one of ma frend's system, but it also depends on the OS that u are using.

ALL THE BEST DUDE
