Thanks - it may have helped. I'll take a look at the logs much later today. I dropped the speed from 115200 to 57600 and it's a little bit more reliable now, but only by a fraction, not at all by a magnitude. Thanks everybody for your help. Wesley Parish On Tue, 08 Sep 2009, Ross Drummond wro

Hi Wesley, >> ...dialup woes... I had an issue recently where a user could not get reliable DSL in the suburbs... negotiating between 160kbit and 2 Mbit, and drop outs every few minutes. Telecom didn't want to know because despite being a telecom phone number, it was a callplus DSL. Cal

Might be bleeding obvious to an ADSL user, but I am on dialup. It should be working perfectly, since it apparently either shares a line that was replaced in 2005; but it started palying up last year, about the time we had quite a lot of precipitation, and hasn't stopped. In the meantime, Telec
