Iit is not the service provider.I can connect with my other modem.

This is soooo frustrating

then use the other modem and throw this one away

But the other one connects at only 36kbps or something like that, so he wants the 56k one to connect.

If the modem came from your ISP when they came to set up your connection (if they did) then call them up and tell them your not happy with it, they&#39;ll deliver you a new one free of charge

It doesn&#39;t work that way with dial-up

That may depend on where you are. It&#39;s a big world.

Why would you pay for a 56k modem for 300&#036;??? You could get a Cable modem for a year, and it wouldnt cost that much.

The point is , that I bought the modem a few days ago.And I don&#39;t have enough money to buy a new one now.I am 17 and I am not rich. OK ?

You just bought it? then return it it is probaably incompatible or broken, not worth trying to fix. Just get a different one.
