Internet Connection with Analogue Modem

HB13DISH

Sometimes I have a weird problem with my ADSL connection at home. There is simply no connection to the internet which can last few hours and then all of a sudden there is a connection
So I am forced to use my good old analogue modem to connect so that I can check e-mails and the forum.
Just wondering if there is a way to connect any Dreambox (particularly 7000S) to the internet using the analogue modem.
Perhaps using the RS-232 connector ?
Thanks.
BTW: I am browsing now using analogue connection. It is not that bad really.

i cannot answer the analogue question but it sounds like your line is corrupted. this happened to me a few year back. Sometimes internet was on for a few hours, sometimes for 5minutes and sometimes for a few days. I eliminated the wireless issue because i tried connecting via Ethernet and to my laptop and got the same effect.

you will have to get somebody round to do a line test, if you know anybody with a telephone line cable tester then you should get it checked out. If not ring your isp and ask for an engineer, they will sort it.

But it might just be the connection box that needs replacing due to oldness that leads to the outside world. We had to get ours changed as all the wiring inside was fraid and on it's last legs basically.

Thanks Sharkadder for the reply.
This happens at certain times, usually in the evenings when there is a large number of people using the internet during peak times, so I will look into improving "something" in my subscription in order to stop it. This could mean paying more money for the line.
What I am really after is to use the box with analogue modem. My guess is Not Possible.

Is your phone line quality OK? A couple of years ago I has a similar problem and used to hear a lot of crackling when making a phone call. Turned out to be a damaged cable where it entered the house.

Phone line is OK.
The ADSL line is not the issue here. Will sort it out somehow.
