It's probably you're phone lines. The modem will try it's fastest speed
first then keep falling back until it reaches a reliable data transfer rate.
You should probably try to get your local phone company to do something
about the noisy lines, I don't hold out much hope that they'll do anything.

Nope it's all about level discipline and what constitutes
voice-grade service. The phone companies aren't interested in
providing any more than they have to in order to meet their
legal requirements. It's not all bad, though. They are
upgrading things as they need replacement but they have a

Although it says 56K, I think 51-52K is about the max you are going to
get out of your modem. If you are consistently getting 45K across a
lot of numbers, your limiting factor now is probably your phone line.

Well, thanks gang ... looks like I'm gonna be stuck in the 20th
century
a while longer. At least it's an improvement over the 28.8 modem I'd
been using.

Shel,
It's in the phone lines, in the house or back to the substation. There is no way to
adjust your modem...

The actual, practical maximum for a 56K modem is 53K. I've never seen
it actually happen, though. I live in

Hi Gang
Maybe someone can help me out (Yeah, I know - Which way did you come
in?) I just installed a 56K modem and the fastest connection speed I've
been able to get is about 45K. I've tried connecting to several phone
numbers, but 45K has been the upper limit Is there some way to adjust

Connection speed is not just based on your modem it is also based on the
modem bank you are connecting to. Also, connection speed has nothing at all
to do with computer speed.
Speed of the modems is a "theoretical" upper limit and you'll never see the
maximum speed as the phone lines degrade
