Your problem might not be in the modem or the computer. When I had dial up service my V.90 modem never got above 28.8KPS (usually 26.4KPS). The reason -- my "telephone company" has a shortage of copper cable to service the neighborhood so they put the service between my neighborhood and the phone office on a "doubler". In effect they do an analog to digital conversion of my phone and someone elses phone so they can get 2 lines on the same pair of copper wire without burying some more. When they do this you will never get more than 28.8 KPS for a dial up speed.
