Modem Testing

My machine is a Dimension 4100.  Would appreciate information regarding how to know if a modem is failing?  Can the modem get into the mid stage between good and bad?  If so, how can that be determined?

Hi Rhwightjr,

Here is a modem testing program. http://www.modemsite.com/56k/modemchk.asp

Thanks.  Should have mentioned that I have the DELL MT205XP modem tester.  It indicates that my modem is working, but I wonder if it is working all the time as Internet transmission is very erratic.

There is a new standard  http://www.v92.com/ , and  your ISP could have a number that works better with your modem.

Thanks for your help. I will see about upgrading my modem to a v92.
