Sorry if this is the wrong forum, I wans't quite sure where to put this.
I'm currently using my parent's conputer for internet purposes because something is wrong with my connection.
When I attempt to connect (with my Lucent Win modem) one of several things happen. I either get and error telling me that "your computer and the remote computer could not agree on a PPP protacol", an error telling my that the connection "faild because the remote computer did not respond in a timely manner", or I connet at 115.2kbps/9.6kbps and when I try to actually surf the net I repeatedly get "this page could not be found" errors, untill finally it will begin to load one page over about half an hour.
My comp and my parent's are usually in the same house, using the same phone line, and the same ISP. I have the drivers for the modem and have tried re-installing them. I've tried reformatting my hard drive. Neither worked.
The most annoying thing about this problem is, as far as I recall, I did not change anything about my computer before this happened. It just... happened.
I'd really appreciate any help with this. I may not have internet access for a day or two, but feel free to ask any questions and I'll answer them when I can.
