ISSUE: Modem Connection Problems / Not Connecting at 56k

OS AFFECTED: Windows 9x

RESOLUTION: Modems have a relatively small on-board cache and data buffer. The following settings allow the modem to access some of the system RAM to use as cache during times of high modem activity. Go into your system.ini file. Locate the following: [386Enh]. This step is very useful for windows based modems, 56k connections that only register 28.8k

If your modem is on Com 1, on the line directly below the [386Enh] add this:
Com1Irq4Buffer=1024

If your modem is on Com 2, on the line directly below the [386Enh] add this:
Com2Irq3Buffer=1024

If your modem is on Com 3, on the line directly below the [386Enh] add this:
Com3Irq4Buffer=1024

If your modem is on Com 4, on the line directly below the [386Enh] add this:
Com4Irq3Buffer=1024
