I don't know how or why but my computer has decided to stop using my high speed ISDN modem and start using it's internal, dial up, slow as a bitch modem all of a sudden. Does anyone know how to change which modem I'm using, with Windows XP? I thought I knew how because I had to set this up in the first place but I can't figure out a way. :?

Ok, nevermind. I pulled a plug out, (even though it was not in any way not fully plugged in) plugged it back in again and my modem and I are officially back on speaking terms.

I would recommend pulling the plug out and plugging it back in. That should put you and the modem back on speaking terms.
