Problems with modem Agere / Lucent

--- It's the following personnel, took a micro pump to vary eheheh.
Of which which, the customer complained about the slowness to surf the Internet.
Configuration supermachine:
AMD K6-2 166 MHZ PC
CHEETOS-598-H LMRT
64 MB of memory generic
MODEM HSP 56 Micromodem argghhhhh!!
Video 8 MB on board and onboard sound
Quantum 20 GB HD w / bad blocks
As you can see is a beautiful machine to throw away eheheheh.
But since I am stubborn ehehehhe decided to uninstall the modem and onboard , I stuck a agere / lucent 56k v.90.
And, oddly enough remained slow, did all that was changing the protocols used for dial-up tweaks, Max used the modem, reinstalled ** and nothing ******.
concluded that poor performance is actually due to excellent motherboard hehehe, because ever seen k6, that same clock running until reasonable, but soyo mobos and Intel.
The suggestion now is to use one of soyo mobo, and if possible a K6-2 processor 500, the second since the support of this Agere SoftModem, demands at least a Pentium 200 MMX.
A colleague in another forum sent disable onboard sound that pc-cheetos, which he says improves performance for web browsing (the things cheetos-pc), but the sound is running out of dose, since all pci's are populated .
If anyone has any further suggestions without being set fire to everything ehehehhe, send there.

--- AMD K6-2 166 MHZ (K62 guess there is not 166) if he is showing how K62 166, 'cause this is misconfigured in the BIOS takes the cooler and see q clock really is, but considering not only looks and q 'so hard to achieve at least a loan processor or clock approx K2500, do the test, but not particularly think is "guilty" of the processor, but worth trying

Goldsmith,

I think you should suspect the modem, even if it is new. Try another, or testing this on another PC, to assess the speed.
Another thing: Maicrosoft is right, the K6 166 is I and not II. The 6 K II began in 266 Mhz, check the configuration.
Good luck!

--- I agree with my colleagues up there must be something in the setup configured wrong or you made a mistake by putting K6-II 166.
One suggestion I give you and update tbm Lucent Modem Driver 8.10.

Cheers, Marcelo Cross

--- There's something wrong there!
This processor should be a K6II over 300Mhz with misconfiguration FSB and / or multiplier. To make sure you remove the CPU cooler and check.
Jah seen this kind of thing only happens a few times with this motherboard.
I could clear the CMOS and restarting the computer a 350 or 400 if K6II tansformava K6 at 166, because the motherboard naum correctly detected the processor.

--- Thanks guys I've put two, but it is a k6 166 mhz.
Bus Clock Speed ​​Clock Speed ​​Multiplier
K6 166 166 MHz 66 MHz 2.5x
< BR> The modem is perfect
tested on another PC.
The problem is the pc-ehehhehe cheetos.
: twisted:

--- is Goldsmith, with this configuration
is difficult ... Now, just to get a suspect, you found this slowness in outtra line unless the client does not
If so, it would be good to go to another more powerful processor, preferably a 500Mhz because with the M598 you can not think of weak processor.

concordiu --- 100%
kra, I'll change it here, but for now I have the tb m598 with a K62 @ 523Mhz. qo first such "raiser" modem HSP56K never came close to the plate, got a tb LT/V.92, but nothing wrong here estah in good server provider with free dah about 7Kb/sec. But the layout of the sound is really true, eh not know what for sure, but this board it is not very friendly onboard sound chip (which incidentally very good ateh h, C-Media 8738) she has, everything is 100% better when they procure the sound is off. Must be the PCI latency, q has some weird middle levels .. eh my opinion it is the power of the CPU itself, jah qdo that once she was about 300Mhz in the bios, it seemed that she did not guentava GF2MX400 a PCI C-Media 8738 onboard modem LT (q h after WinModem, spend CPU will neh) - everything was very slow, as if overloaded. Cooler that was to change the config guentava 550MHz everything worked.
