[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Shadow: [QB] The SLIP/PPP software will generally tell you what speed you're connected at. See, over here in Connecticut, we've got SNET, the worst phone company in the country, with the possible exception of US West. You can never, ever connect at the full speed of a modem. 56K modems connect at 40Kbps, 33.6 modems connect at 30K or so, and 28.8 modems connect at 24K. And when we had our frame relay installed, SNET had to delay it for a month because the equipment wasn't capable of supporting it, being 1950's-era!
