NO ! It is actually a sign that Telstra was providing a quality ' Voice Line ' which is what these lines were originally provided for. Lines that are distant from the exchange need AMPLIFICATION to overcome the Line Losses. Telstra only uses Equipment designed and manufactured by Private Enterprise. So if it has not beendesigned or made it cannot be used. It would be great if we could throw a switch and convert the whole Network at into Digital circuits for Zero cost. But considering the total network is worth about 40 Billion A$ that is not going to happen. Meanwhile James should still be able to achieve something like 38k. Perhaps he needs an alternate script for his modem. Good idea ! Coming attached to a separate email James. There are others available if this one does not help. Bob Howells
