    Unhappy Why is my connction slower than usual?

    My conection is on dial up, and it used to conect on 53kbps. But lately it has only been conecting at 33. My connection is already slow at 53kb and now at 33!! Anybody know what could have happened? I didnt do anything to the modem settings. Need help with this...

    Probably noise on your telephone line or something in your modem busted itself.
    Do check whether your telephone line has any noise, humming, or any other interference. This is usually the cause for lower speed connects..

    Well thanks for the info!!! I really dont think its the modem, so i guess it should be the phone line. Ill change that old line and hope it works.

    You don't really need to change the whole line. It's probably just a loose connection somewhere.
