hi, nospin group. i am seeking help for the following situation:
i recently made a gift of my computer (pentium 90, win 95A, 56K v90
modem) to a friend as i built a new computer for myself. my friend
tells me when he checks the modem connect speed by putting the mouse on
the icon in the tray, it shows 115K. i had him install "system
monitor" from the windows 95 cd, but the monitor also shows that high
speed. over the years i used the computer it always read 26.4 or 28.8.
he hasn't changed anything or added any programs. don't know why he
gets the internal reading, and i wonder if anyone in the group has any
suggestions on how it can be re-set so it reads the more accurate
(relative) connection speed over the phone line. we're trying to
determine if it would be worth his while to buy a new modem to achieve a
faster connect speed.
thanks. jim wishner/minnesota
