I have had a problem with my dialup on Win2k. It would keep trying to negotiate over and over but only connect sometimes. I removed/reinstalled the TCP/IP and dialup from my ISP connection but it made no differance.
I finally reinstalled my modem drivers. When I did this Win2k said the drivers were an update from what I had, but they are the same drivers (from the same CD I first installed). After I reinstalled the drivers everything came right.
Win98 has a problem with the Dialup Adaptor getting corrupt but I don't think it has the same problem in Win2k.
Also try installing/reinstalling Service Pack 2.
New Zealand, a great place to live.
It's not my Dialup Connection or my modem driver. I've reinstalled them both many times. I'm getting inconsistent speeds and poor handshaking. I've changed modems and anything else I can think of. The same line and connection works fine on another PC. My ISP say they don't have a problem.
And I recently reinstalled/Upgraded Win2K. Problem was there before the reinstall.
