Hi

I have a dial-up connection and it takes about 5 minutes to connect.
It used to take 5 seconds to connect, but now am having to wait too long.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

 
Most important first check is to make sure that you haven't been infected with Malware that has put a rogue dialer onto your system.

Then some information would be appreciated. What are you dialling, what modem, what OS, etc. But check for that Malware first.

Download a program called "CWShedder". This checks, and cures, I.E.
 
First thing I would do would be try changing your access numbers for your isp. Secondly, update your drivers for your modem.
