    Modem problem ..

    1: Try a different ISP eg: Oceanfree 2434321
    2: Try dialing your mobile from phone dialer, if that works your modem is fine and its most likely a protocol problem.
    3: Make sure TCP/IP and client for MS networks is installed

    DIVX problem ....

    Try installing the newer version of DIVX (ver4 i think it is)

    Regarding the modem :

    When does it fail? (When Authenticating Name, Before? After?)
    Was it working before?
    If it was working perviously has anything changed?
    What ISPs are you trying?

    First thing i would suggest is either to recreate the DUN (Dial Up Networking) connection to Oceanfree or to try a different ISP and see if you have the same problems.

    If you have the same problems you could try the latest driver at :

    I'd recommend uninstalling the modem and reinstalling with the above driver if you go down that route.

    I had a similar problem. I had to install the older codecs, then work up to divx5. Are you getting an error with media player? Are you getting a message about the divx dll?

    I believe i've had the same or a similar problem with divx's and SmR's in the past - seems to be related to windows media player itself for me anyway, don't properly recognise that there is video there to be played. I use winamp3 or any other software that run's off the systems's codec's and they all seem to look at the file type and find the video stream for me and work away fine......

    Hope that helps........real dodgy ****e :)
