slkh 0 Posted June 3, 2000 The black colour 56 kbps modem from USR has some heat dissipation problem. The speed get slower and slower when the heat built up. While if you disconnect and leave it for five minutes you will get a fast connection again. I am not sure if this applies to you. But if you only get this type of problem in Windows 2000 and not Windows 98, then it probably be the driver problem Share this post Link to post
