Windows 98 - Internet dial-up is constantly interrupted

November 25, 2013
Updated: April 14, 2022
Quick overview:

Falls Sie beim Einwählen ins Internet Schwierigkeiten haben, so könnte es an dem so genannten Timeout liegen. Dieser bricht nämlich die Einwahl nach einer bestimmten Zeit ab, obwohl kurze Zeit später vielleicht doch eine Verbindung möglich geworden wäre. Um diesen Timeout komplett zu deaktivieren, müssen Sie folgende Schritte durchführen.

Tips for a stable Internet connection

1. Klicken sie nacheinander auf "Start" > "Ausführen" und tippen sie in die Befehlszeile "regedit" gefolgt von Enter ein.

2. Hangeln sie sich durch die Schlüssel "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\Net\0001" und doppelklicken sie im rechten Teilfenster auf den Wert "Slownet".

3. Es erscheint eine Zeile mit dem Inhalt "0000  01". Löschen sie nun das "01" und tragen stattdessen eine "0" hinein, sodass der Eintrag nun "0000  00" lautet.

NOTE FOR NEW PUBLICATION: This article was produced by Sandro Villinger and comes from the Windows Tweaks archive, which has been built up since the late 1990s.

Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in 2001, his helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (at the time Sandro looked like this). He then went on to write for international publications such as PC-Praxis, Computerbild, PCWorld in the USA, IMTEST.de and Hifi.de. Sandro's main job is as Global Product Marketing Lead and Consultant for various global tech companies, including Microsoft, AVG, Avast, Nero, TeamViewer, Swiss IT Security Group and now currently in the fintech sector for Gendigital. But he can't get rid of his passion and shares his tweaks here again. Privately, he enjoys traveling the world and loves Asia, especially Japan, Singapore and Korea, but also natural places like Iceland and the Nordics. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
