How to improve your dialup modem performance?

    You can't assume that just because you connected at a speed like 48.3KBps that you will stay there. Today's modems automatically fall back to a lower speed if the line noise is too high to maintain a faster connection, but sometimes they fall back too soon or too far.

    Here's how to do it:

    Click Start the button.
    Select Settings.
    Click Control Panel.
    Double-click on the Modems icon.
    Select your modem.
    Click the Properties button.
    Click the Connections tab.
    Click the Advanced button.
    In the "Extra settings" field, type S36=7
    Click OK to save your settings.

    Increasing the speed also helps a little bit.
    I used to use them on Max speed to get better results. :)

    I think no solution for dial-up speed. Try to make other connection.
