I had a friend tell me that you guys could probably help me out. :tazz:

I just got my new Inspiron 9300 yesterday, and it's really nice, except the modem won't connect over 28.8k, and most of the time it's 26.4. It's a Conexant D110 v.92. I know it's not the phone line/ISP because I can get on my desktop and get 44-49k. I've also run all the spyware checks and updated my drivers and I still can't get over 28.
So does anyone have any ideas on what to do?
Thanks!

The first step I'd advise would be to call Dell Tech Support, since this is a new machine. They'll probably run you through some diagnostics and either fix it over the phone, or possibly need to replace the modem.
