Author Topic: Modem Connections Paul G. Thompson The Weenie Man Posts: 4718 From: Mount Vernon WA USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 02-03-2003 07:03 PM                     Update: It held connection for the last hour. The boss told me that the computer locked up when he was having the problem. So, I am going to presume there were some wrong settings in the BIOS.  |  IP: Logged Rick Raskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1100 From: Manassas Virginia Registered: Jan 2003 posted 02-04-2003 07:35 PM                     Does your modem allow you to view message exchanges, ie., diagnostic messages)? If so look for who is sending the disconnect. CD (carrier detect) droping would tend to point to the ISP or phone line. DTR (data terminal ready)dropping may indicate a computer issue. These things can be a royal pain but they can be solved.  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

Really does not make any difference, though. The computer self-distructed today.  |  IP: Logged Rick Raskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1100 From: Manassas Virginia Registered: Jan 2003 posted 02-06-2003 07:56 AM                     Sometimes that is the only cure. Sorry it was so drastic.  |  IP: Logged
