Can no longer download jobs via dial-up connection - Jonesey


Posted: Jul 28, 2010

I have been working successfully for Softscript for the past 5 years via a dial-up internet connection.  Recently, I have been having trouble downloading jobs; i.e., I can't do it.  The tech person I have been working with there says that my computer is fine - it is just that dial-up is outdated - "no one expects anyone to have a dial-up connection any more".

I don't understand how it can be working one day and not the next.  Anybody have any ideas, fixes, etc.  I am desperate.

Good Luck! - Carol

Try contacting your Internet provider. Perhaps they can do something to boost your speed on dial-up.

Dial Shunt?
Aug 06, 2010

Is there such a thing as a dial shunt surgery?  I can't tell if this doctor is trying to think of what she wants to say or if she's tripping over her words on this one.  The next number in the past medical history is multiple caths, if that helps at all.  Her diagnosis is end state renal disease/on dialysis. ...

Have to admit I'm pretty shocked by several of the posts on this forum, especially concerning how the companies are operating.  New to the MT world here, and guess I'm green.  Hadn't heard much at the school I attended except this forum was "too negative."  I now see there's a legit reason for negative posts about companies if these posters are being honest, and I have no reason to believe they're not. Just wondering how tight a connection the MT schools ...

American Health Connection has posted for staff/agent jobs on MTDaily and MT Stars.  They are very pleasant people with whom to work for sure.  The trend these days is to outsource hospital patient registration and companies such as this are taking off big time.  Having started training with them, I have had nothing but trouble...at first I was told my bandwidth was fine, only to learn that I needed 40-50 download speed and at least 10 upload speed.  Had to switch to a new provider, however, ...
