can i make my LucentWin dial up modem faster?

You can download a download acclerator, a web acclerator or the Xlr8 technology program. These are free. I'm not sure where to get these but try searching for it.

I believe it would be a lot quicker if you bought the CD of Windows XP SP2 from one of your local computer stores. Yeah, if I were you, I would buy it from the store rather than looking at my screen having to wait for the whole thing to download depending on what speed your modem is.

If this is a dial up modem, there's not a lot you're going to be able to do, as the speed depends on the quality of the wiring from within your house to the outside, from the outside of your house to the phone co., and from the phone co. to your internet provider.  If this is a DSL modem, and you're speed is that slow, I'd suggest checking into cable modem service, or contacting the phone company providing your DSL service to find out why your performance is so bad.

8kbps.\nBut, seriously folks...DSL is a dedicated "always-on" connection while dial-up requires that your computer place a phone call and ties up the phone line.  Best bet is to get DSL and hope that your phone company moves a switch closer to your home soon...

Well, dial up is just that slow or the slowest out there.But, if this is all she can get then she should try first by cleaning up the disc and then do a defragment after that. This will help somewhat! Also, she should run her adware,spyware program to make sure that this is not whats slowing her pc down. Also, it wouldn't hurt to also run your virus scan. Good Luck!!!!! But. if she gets a dial up through her telephone service she should be able to get DSL with modem.....

I am not quite sure, but lets do\n- Right click on My network places\n- select properties\n- Right click on the modem connection (dial up connection) you made\n- select properties\n- Now, as i remember, select advanced then share this connection\n- and go\n\nXLMan

If you're dialing changing ISP's will probably not work. \n\nIf you're connecting at 26k it seems to me like you have either a really old modem or perhaps faulty wiring or even just line noise.\n\nI would switch to some form of broadband access imediately. DSL is good but Cable is faster.

No you can not connect a dial-up through this one.\nDial-up connection uses different modem (phone modem basically), dlink 502T is for broadband based connection only (ADSL technology). \n\nGo for broadband based connection since you have already got a BSNL phone connection it will be very quick, now a days they install broadband in just 7 days.

if your ( or their) line is too slow , burn it onto cd and send via post.otherwiese , broadband should do it in an hour or so.

If you're using a dial up 56K modem, then you can't.  It's not possible unless you upgrade your service and get a faster modem (most likely external plugged into your USB or ethernet adapter, if you have these).  Some dial-up servers are a bit faster than others, but none will exceed 56K/sec.  Some ISPs may seem to be a bit faster, but this is only because they allow the text to downloaded first, then each image on the current section of the page you're viewing to be downloaded separately rather than everything on the page downloading at the same time.

There is no way to increase the speed of a dial-up connection.  However there is software such as Net-Zero 3G "high-speed" which uses compression technology to make web pages load faster.  It will increase your browsing speed but will do nothing to increase download speeds.  Net-Zero 3G is $10 per month but if you're going to spend that you may as well get DSL and you can get cheap DSL for $15 per month.

are you using dial-up? if you are i wouldn't know anything about it. but if you are using dsl i find it helpful to turn of the modem, wait a while, turn it on, and reconnect to the internet. i've noticed that some downloads go a lot faster than others. try the modem trick and if that doesn't work contact your interent service provider. i had slow dsl and i called my isp and there was a problem (they had to have a repairman fix it). i hope that helps. :-)

Yes, your dial up modem on the PC will work, but only as a dial up connection, not as DSL. \n\nDial up modem uses Voice frequencies for data transmission whereas DSL modems use the frequencies that are well above Voice frequency. Thus in order to benefit from the broadband above your narrow voice band frequencies, you will require a DSL modem that uses the broad band to transmit data. \n\nUsing a Low pass filter, you can also talk via your phone at the same time you are accessing the internet. You can't do this with your voice band dial up modem.\n\nFor more tech info: http://www.tutorial-reports.com/networking/broadband/dsl/introduction.php

Dialup, Cable or DSL use CableNut. It is freeware.

Click on Start, Control Panel, then Network Connections. Right click on your Internet connection & select Properties. Then select Configure button. \n\nMaximum speed (bps). Users of 33.6K Modems should set this to 56700, while 56K Modem users should select 115200. \n\nEnable hardware flow control. Tick this setting to enable the use of hardware handshaking with your connection. For best connection stability & throughput ensure this setting is Ticked. Though in some (rare) cases you may find Unticking this setting can improve connection stability (Uses Software flow control instead). \n\n \nEnable modem error control. Tick this setting to enable the use of Modem error control, which will attempt to ensure data integrity in the connection, resending any damaged packets as necessary. I’d highly recommend enabling this. There are also Init strings available which can be used to disabled inefficient error control components.\n\nEnable modem compression. Data compression provides faster uploads/downloads depending on the data which is getting compressed. Should you have a Winmodem then you can leave this setting Unticked as these Modems do not support hardware compression. For regular, hardware, modems Tick this setting to enable the Modem to perform any data compression, which provides lower CPU usage over using software compression. As a result I’d recommend Ticking this setting for best system performance. \n\nShow terminal window. Tick this setting to have a Pre-dial terminal session appear. If you need to use this you’ll know. I can’t think of any modern ISP that would require you to use something archaic like this, though some more advanced users might use this to test the Modem. For everyone else just leave this Unticked. \n\n \n\nEnable modem speaker. Tick this setting to enable the speaker on the Modem to emit sound. This is fairly useful as you should be able to tell whether or not you can successfully connect or not just by listening to the connection when being dialled up. Untick this setting to mute the Modem’s speaker. \n\nClick Ok & select the Networking tab. \n\n \n\nType of dial-up server I am calling. Set this to PPP: Windows 95/98/NT4/2000, Internet unless your ISP has informed you otherwise, which is unlikely. \n\nNow select the Settings button. \n\n \n\nEnable LCP extensions. LCP (Link Control Protocol) extensions provide a way of establishing, configuring, maintaining, & terminating a PPP connection. You should leave this setting Ticked unless you experiencing problems connecting to your ISP as a result of its enabling. \n\nEnable software compression. Tick this setting to enable software (CPU) data compression for your connection. This will provide faster uploads/downloads depending on the data which is getting compressed. Should you have a Modem which can performance compression in hardware then I’d recommend you leave this setting Unticked & allow the Modem to perform any data compression – this should improve system performance slightly as the CPU will not be required to perform a task which can be done on separate, dedicated, hardware. Those would Winmodems should Tick this for optimal upload/download speeds, albeit it at the cost of some CPU cycles. \n\nNegotiate multi-link for single link connections. You can leave this setting Tick unless you experience problems connecting to your ISP (Error code 733 according to Microsoft), in which case Untick this. \n\nClick Ok after you’ve made your changes. \n\nFor the most efficient Internet connection you should Uninstall as many unnecessary Clients/Services/Protocols as possible, e.g. Client for Microsoft Networks & QoS Packet Scheduler. As you may have noticed from my Dial-up connection only Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is installed.
