You might post all the details about your modem. Maybe someone here will have the same one and have already debugged it.

"I never had this problem before with my old computer which used the same phone line and I have used different ISP's (3 of them) and it happens with all of them"

are you saying you have used three different isp's with this new computer, or are you referring to the old computer?

Susie, if this happens with 3 ISPs and didn't happen with the old computer on the same phone line, then I agree with you: it's probably the modem.

I bought a new hardware modem a couple of months ago and it works well. It's a Hayes Accura V.90 and cost $60.
The old modem worked, but slowed down the pc because it was a Winmodem [they use memory instead of hardware].
