My connection speed can vary between 35kbps and 49.2kbps (this is the fastest I've ever experienced), and in the last week I keep having to reconnect as the connection will just stop working - it looks as is it's still connected but the browser will not connect to ANY sites and Outlook isn't able to check email.
I run various spy-detector, registry cleaner, defragmenting, firewall, and virus programs - anyone know how I can improve the connection speed?!

Hi BigBadJimmy and a great big
to our comunity...
49.2kbps is not to shabby for a dial up... 56k is not actualy a speed its a compresion system....
How long are you able to browse before the connection goes dead... I ask as NTL disconnect dial up users after 2 hours online...
