Hi,

Has anyone experienced difficulties logging on over the last twenty four
hours or so?

Using a RiscPC (SA) with the ANT Suite and a Pace 56 Voice modem I'm finding
that my success rate is about one in four. The other attempts produce either
no connection at all or connections at ridiculously low rates (2400 or 7200)
which don't complete the negotiation process. It doesn't matter which ROMP I
use - Red, Green or Purple.

I haven't changed my setup so, if no-one else is experiencing this, I suppose
it's my hardware :-(

Alan.

You're not using a PC card are you? I found I was logging on at speeds of
2400 and tied this into using my PC card before hand.

This was a problem with some of the early versions of the PC card software
but was fixed quite a while ago with PC Pro.

Nope, but thanks anyway.

None at all Alan. Have your phone company been up to something I wonder?

I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights, so it looks
like I'm the only one moving.

That was my next port of call, but Demon have said there were problems
between the Gyle and Telehouse *tonight* which would have affected
connectivity. Perhaps there were problems on Sat and Sun without their
knowing.

Anyway, things have been better tonight.

Alan.

I wish I'd have kept my gob shut. I had my first remote "system has hung
up" for months on the green romp tonight.
