No you should not be having these problems Cause: The ISP server is not running.

Solution: Ask your ISP system administrator to verify that the server is running.

Cause:

Your modem is unable to negotiate correctly with the modem of the ISP server

The serial port of the computer cannot keep up with the speed you have selected

Solution: Try to connect at a lower initial port speed.

Cause: Your modem software needs to be updated.

Solution: Check with your modem manufacturer for modem software updates.
