Monitoring Your Dial-Up Connection

There are some system checks you can use to see how good your ISP and Phone lines are.
You either net OEM SR2 or the ISDN Accelerator Pack 1.1 installed

1. Make sure SYSMON is installed. You can add this through the Control Panel / Add New Programs
2. Run SYSMON
3. Select Edit / Add Item
4. Click on Dial-Up Networking Adapter
5. Select CRC Errors
6. Click on OK

If you have lots of CRC errors, either the phone lines or your modem is having problems.

You can also add Framing Errors and Timeout Errors if you are still having problems and your phone line appears ok.
