    BT VOYAGER 100
    I got this modem cheap off E-bay. I use it as a second modem to connect my laptops, so I don’t have to move the one BT supplied when I signed up from broadband from my desktop.
    The modem works no problem with one laptop which I have windows ME running on. I can connect and browse at speeds up to 1.7MB. But if I connect my other laptop which has XP SP2 installed on it, my connection speed goes down to as low as 14k (tested using www.irishisptest.com).
    I am using the latest drivers for the modem downloaded from (http://www.voyager.bt.com/usb100/pcdownload.htm).
    Anybody any ideas why I connect so slow when using windows XP (firewalls etc. are turned off):confused: ???

    Do you disconnect the BT supplied modem from the phone line before connecting the voyager?

    Of course. As I say it works fine with the windows ME laptop. Unplug this and plug into XP and speed drops right down?
