Hey there's nothing wrong with good old dial-up!  Try looking at this site:\nhttp://help.prodigy.net/help/network/prob/slowconnect.html\n\nI know it's a bit heavy for the normal internet user, but if you can identify the type of modem you've got, it should help to try to modify the initialization string as they suggest.  Always remember to make a note of what's in there first!

dial up is too slow. get yahoo dsl for a couple bucks more than dial up and then you can use any voip plan out there.

National Access is awful.  It is MUCH slower than dial-up and usually doesn’t work at all.  However it does work just like a regular internet connection, only badly.

Ur internet speed is very slow. Use dsl connection instead of dial up. Such problems will never end on dial up connection.

if you are on dialup, your connection might be slow and u might be getting disconnected from time to time.

You should either abandon the dialup for something better (at least DSL, then you don't have to worry about phone calls), or you should get a seperate phone line (they are inexpensive).  If you MUST use dialup on the same line, then there are plenty of programs for that.  Check download.com .

If firefox stopped. Try opening Internet explorer. If internet explorer works and firefox doesnt you'll know why.\n\n\nDialup usually disconnects people especially if you use something digusting like aol and walmart connect.\n\n\nNetscape dialup, earthlink, and juno are the best rated dialup services.

Ah, the wonders of dialup!  Sorry, that's the way dialup is. if they hang up on you, there is not much you can do.  Consider broadband if you can.  Do you have Telstra in Perth?

yeah, i've used it on several occassions, if you're having a problen connecting online, just exit the application first, then load it again after some time.

After any kind of broadband, dial-up is going to PAINFULLY slow.  Web sites are adding more & more graphics all the time, not to mention the time it takes to load all the adds.  So it will only get worse.

I used to connect years ago with dial up. When I did use my webcam with sound it was horrible. It cut off alot and the voice transmissions were horrible. There is so much bandwith going through those lines that it cannot handle it. Go DSL or Cable and you shouldn't have a problem. If you dont have access to that in your area then you may want to consider satilite access. But that costs lots of money.

if you are using dial up, it is not very optimal, there is a lag in the recieving, you need broadband to enjoy it

DSL will work but dial up wont. it might lag at times but you should be okay. hope this helps!
