31. SET YOUR MODEM'S MAX SPEED

* Double click the Modem icon in the control panel. The 'Modem Options' window appears. Two tabs should appear, 'General' and 'Diagnostics'.
* Select the 'General' tab, then select 'Properties'. which opens and has a 'Maximum Speed' box about half way down.
* Open the box and select 115,200, then 'OK'.

If you have a 56kb/s modem this setting won't hurt it, but a setting of 9600 could slow it down.
