Recently suck a 3com winmodem (56 K v.90) in my home system (had a 33.6 and this was free )and it works great except that is goes in stops and starts. That is that it will downloads at a very nice rate for about 2 seconds then stop downloading for couple of seconds. And continues to repeat this the whole time I am connected. I have tried both my work isp and home isp so its not that. Is there some settings I need to change for anything?

CPU 333 celeron (no cache)
win 98

Thanks.
