The modem would dial and error would say that the number being called was not answering. This happened for hours and days........until this am I took my land-line and pushed the speaker button so I could hear how my PC was sounding while trying to dial.
Here is the mystery. I connected! So I hung my speaker phone up and lost the connection too.I have now done this a several times to make sure it was not a coincidence. Each time I have to lift the receiver on other phone while modem is dialing in order to connect and cannot hang it up or it will be lost. I tried a different phone line that was shorter than the last one and it wasn't fazed.Troubleshooting my modem does not bring up anything either. Any idea on what is causing this and what to adjust first?
