Bytes received problem 1

[crorepathi]

I am having windows XP with Pentium 4 and a dial up internet connection with genric k 56 internal modem and when i try to connect to internet, all is well for 5 minutes and after about 5 minutes, bytes received are stopped but if i upload something, i am able to do without any problem..
If i restart my windows i am able to browse successfully for about 5 more minutes..Let me know how can i resolve it
Thanks

Basically your modem is retraining.

What happens is your modem is connecting at the fastest speed it possibly can. When this speed is simply to fast for the phone line you will lose packets on data. If your modem detects packet loss it will stop dataflow (for approximately 1 minute) and retrain itself to a slower speed. Then once packet loss ceases it will again stop dataflow (for approimately 1 minute) and retain itself to a faster speed.

This loop just continues over and over.

To fix the problem you will need to put in an initialisation string to slow the modem to a constant speed.

It may also help to install the correct modem drivers for your modem, as you are only using the Generic windows drivers.

If you post your exact modem type I will get a string for you and tell you how to add it.

try +ms=v90,,,40000
if that works
try +ms=v90,,,41333
if that works
try +ms=v90,,,42667
if that works
try +ms=v90,,,44000
