I'd first check out in which operating mode you modem is currently set. It might be set to operate in other than V90 mode. You could check it from the log file( if there's one in windows directory) or from a terminal program (HyperTerminal, or kermit) send a command to your modem: ATI
You may then use AT strings to set up your modem to operate with correct speed, and also sometimes you could enter some init strings that usually required for your modem type to work optimally -- check this on modem manufact site if you know it ( and you could post a link to this sitefor others as well and I alos add it on transmodesos.net)

Hope it helps,
