Did you turn off the modem speaker in the Modem section of Control Panel? That's how I do it to prevent hearing that screeching on connect.

If that doesn't work, in the Extra Settings box, put M0L0 (that's M zero L zero).

MOLO Did Not Work.
I twisted the speaker off the modem with some good pliers. No more internet noise. Works like a charm. |

That means that the generic driver is not the right one. I know you have taken care of the issue in your own way, but I'm posting this for the benefit of others that haven't dug out their pliers yet.

yes i used M zero L zero. I know it would have been preferable to solve the problem with the correct driver but broadband was down and dialup was all i had.

M zero L zero is M0L0, as opposed to MOLO......that was our point.

Here's what it looks like in Win2K - XP should be the same or close to it:

M0L0 in there should totally disable the modem speaker *unless* you have a version of AOL that uses its own modem strings. If that's the case, the settings have to be changed within AOL. I just checked AOL 6.0 and it uses Windows settings, there are no strings to edit within AOL. Earlier versions were different.

I don't use dialup very often any more. But I think the only time I had a quite modem was with MSN Internet!

ok.. i did some tests and figured out the AOL crappy prog is using its own modem strings and all.. and man i hate that prog it messes up my comp, my comp freezes everytime i load up more than like 5 progs.. err.. anyways, is there a way i can use like a generic username and pass on a dialer ? i got my username and pass from AOL, including some phone numbers, but it still doesnt work, its like they disdabled it so i cant use those username and pass without THEIR specific program..
any ideas guys ? 10x alot, KoMoDo |

Nope, you have to use the AOL software, there's no way to connect generically.
Try Expert Setup and see if you can edit the modem string - insert the M0L0 just before the ^M at the end of it. |

There should be a Setup button on the AOL signin screen, that's the only way to get into modem settings that I know of.
