Hello,
I've reported this in the past, and it's still there with the
latest kernel and ppp and stuff.
A PCMCIA modem connected to an ISP will only receive data in
bursts, often with 5 sec to 1-2 MINUTES between them, regardless of ISP
(tested with Netcom/Earthlink and with Ameritech so far) . SAME site,
ISP etc with an EXTERNAL modem workss fine.
This was working fine sometime back in 7.1 or so, but hasn't
been right since. While I don't mind using an external modem as a work
around, some folks will want to use their PCMCIA modem.
This is NOT a winmodem - it's a Zoom model 2975L, which I
bought specifically because it was supposed to work with Linux!
Any ideas? Can loan the modem to whoever wants to debug this
if they need it.
V.
