Thanks Rick,
I agree that it shouldn't be happening. For my internet connection I use microwave wireless. I have no say what so ever over the computer, it is company owned and maintained. She works for an airline doing reservations and the only way, at least for now, that the are allowing their home agents to connect to their servers is via dialup. In telling their IT department they just brush it of saying it is a phone company problem. I don't agree because I can do a test dialup with my computer and stay connected all day long with no problems. I have several lines into the house and have even tried the other lines with no difference.
Any suggestions are definitely welcomed.

Subject: Re: [PCBUILD] Modem Initialization string
I guess I do not have to tell you that that should not happen.
I used the same thing very sucessfully on an AMD 1.7+
with no problems. The fact it is an external modem makes
it even odder...
Have you uninstalled the moden drivers and forced a driver
(clean) re-install?
PS: With the price of DSL falling to less than $15 (in this area),
it might be a good idea to consider that. <?>
