ISDN - hanging connections...

    For some odd reason, all but two of my ISDN connections have crapped out all of a sudden. I normally flick between them pretty much at random, but I've been using UTVi for a while, and when it got crappy again this week, I started trying to try my other connections. And none of 'em work! (Well, BuyandSell.net does, but that's the same as bloody UTVi.)

    When I try and dial Oceanfree, Unison or Eircom, the dialog box flickers a few times, and then sticks on "Opening port..." If I try and set up new connections, again, it flickers, but then I get "Error 651: Your modem (or other connecting device) has reported an error." Searcing the MSKB reveals nothing relevant, and Google isn't helping me either.

    Anybody ever have this before? Help?

    Oh, it's an AVM Fritz (irony, eh?) PCI card on Win2K.

    Could be a problem in the exchange. Have you tried using the analogue lines? (I presume it's "hi-speed")

    I had a problem with mine a while ago and it ended up it was a fault in the exchange. (Both lights were on on the box.)

    just a thought but you may have CMS activated on your line and this will effect the line ????? So if someone calls on the line it will boot you off as the line wants to take the call.

    In a magnificent display of irony, I was cut off. And with true Eircom incompetence, I was still able to dial 1890 numbers, which were of course the numbers I dialled most often. Thanks anyway folks.

    check that OEMCFOS is running in the background....
    and make sure that you have the right drivers installed......some isp's need specially patched drivers to work.....(UK ISPS)
