Jasmine... You might want to try connecting the MODEM directly to the wall socket without any phone in-between. I have a similar set-up and it never disconnects. By the way, mine is a Singnet 256 kbps broadband. My PC is running on Windows 98 Second Edition. Try this and hope it works.

me using singnet BB leh....

/me chants DIALUP DIALUP DIALUP DIALUP DIALUP~!!

Yes. Cable is better. A typical download speed for cable is probably around 100 kbps while for broadband, its probably around 10 - 20 kbps. But you'll have to consider the cost of cable. Its more expensive...Originally posted by jasmine17:cable better ? -
Also to tell you, my flat i'm living in is way over 33 years old. And no, i'm not lying!
