Dial Up connection goes dead within a minute

[¦[ F| ¦¯< F| |\|]

I have a Tata Indicom wireless phone and recently my internet connection has started going dead within a minute. I have those two computer monitors at the bottom right but no traffic passes.

What happened was that my registry got corrupted and registry checker replaced my registry with a half a yr old one. so i reformatted my comp and them this problem came up

I use windows 98 and I.E 6.
Any ideas?
Thnx

P.S. I posted this from a cybercafe so i wont be able to reply to your posts immediately.

can u access any webpage? if no web page is accessible then there may be some problem with the protocol. (Make sure that u use the correct phone model & installation is correct)
check TCP/IP is installed and Type of dialup server is selected as PPP: Windows 95/98 is selected. not SLIP for UNIX. (Right click on dialup connection and then click properties)

Reinstall the modem driver. i am sure the problem will be solved.... my frnd faced similar prob with reliance wireless phone..

Why dont u go for BroadBand? It will give u no disconnection, high speed and always-on connection.

if you are using LSP-340E phone u r bound to have frequent problems with your net ....
if there is no continusous data transfer then the line will go dead after some time .. after giving a few beeps ....
to solve this problem keep downloading something in the background ......... or stream some music online (go for something which eats up less bandwidth )

If you've fiddled with your registry settings, then the chances are that a serious corruption/conflict with the new copy is causing all your problems. Follow the instructions on this page to fix WinSock on your computer and then try reconnecting.

If that doesn't work, be prepared to back up all your data and do a clean reinstall of Windows 98.

¦[ F| ¦¯< F| |\| did u follow what i had told u ???
i also had the same problem and got it solved by the way i have explained ....
first of all it sud b a LSP 340 E connection ..... for it to work the way i said

enonmai ... i respect ur brains ... but i dont think thats a registry problem ....

first infii, the connection goes dead while i am accesing something like loading a webpage etc. maybe i can keep ragna on in the bakgrnd it might help
yes my homepage and other sites do get loaded
since i reformatted my comp so i had to reinstall my modem driver and everything else
I think its just a problem with Tata indicom coz their service just isnt that gr8

i have friends virtually in every part of mumbai ....

the problem was that dns had to be disabled.
as for the service iinfi i do not like a connection which disconnects the moment u stop using it.
Their customer helpline is also a pain try using it.
