I have *exactly* the same problem (kernel 2.2.9-19mdk) and have
the speed set on hghest rate. Connection as reported by KPPP is
generally 48/49k - yet transfer rates are 300 bytes to 3 k at most.
Same hardware, same ISP under win95 (as I'm using now) is now
problem - nor was it with Redhat 5.2.
Along with all the other problems I've having with 2.2.9-19 (no
CDROM - kernal won;t recognise /dev/hdc; no mounting win95 drive
(hda) I'm beginning to think this kernel version is nothing short of a
lemon. That's my explnation as a non-technie... :-)
