[clue-tech] Line noise and modem hangups

[WFT Electronics, Gus Salvatore Calabrese]

It might make sense to have someone put a scope and or
spectrum analyser on your line to see what form the interference is
taking.  I have both,  You may also be having secondary effect such
the signal being demodulated by some non-linearity in your phone lines.
Perhaps we can arrange a meeting to check this out in exchange for lunch
and an ice tea.

Hello,

  I live in Centennial near the KOSI radio towers and I am having  
problems with line noise cutting me off when I am trying to use dial  
up on my computer with either SUSE or (unfortunately)Windows XP. I am  
using an external USR V92/fax modem I thought that it might help me  
connect as I have had good results with external modems before, but  
not now. I have talked with local side of QWest to no avail as they  
won't help home customers who don't use their DSL service. I was  
wondering if anyone else has had this issue or lives in the  
Centennial area near Arapahoe and Colorado Boulevard and has any  
suggestions short of going to DSL or a cable modem. I have tried  
using the rfi filters that you can get at Radio Shack with the same  
results. I also tried the advice of someone who works at a Radio  
Shack and is a SUSE user and added a shielded connector cable from my  
computer to the wall but still getting noise hangups.

Thank you for any help
