This article describes how to modify an America Online (AOL) modem connection script to connect at slower speed such as 33.6 kilobits per second (Kbps).
DISCUSSION To modify a modem profile in AOL follow the steps outlined below:
2. Select the Expert Setup button from the AOL Setup window. 3. Select the location you wish to edit and select the Edit button. 4. Select the Modem Options button in the Edit Location window. 5. Select the Advanced Settings button in the Modem Options window. 6. In the Advanced Settings window, change the name of the modem to something you will be able to identify at a later time, for example, iMac Internal 56K (33.6 kbps). 7. The box labeled Configuration should contain the following string: "Q0E0V1X4S95=1" To force the modem to use V.34 (33.6 kbps maximum speed), add "+MS=11,1" to the end of the configuration string. The result should look like: "Q0E0V1X4S95=1+MS=11,1" If you have never made a successful connection to America Online, the steps above will vary somewhat. Enter the Expert Setup mode and locate the button that allows modem settings to be edited. |
