I have seen bad modems in batches, but as long as you know that the phone line is not the problem (attach a phone and check for noise/dropped connection), it's probably just the modem
But, noticing the trouble you had installing the modem: why?
Should have been no problem at all.
So, what modem are we talking about and other hardware details.
