Well, if you've got a V.90 modem, your best bet is to bitch to your ISP and see when they're going to switch to V.90. Most manufacturers have a software upgrade to V.90 available. If your ISP's sysadmin isn't sure about going to V.90 I'd be happy to talk to him. I've been admin over several ISPs and I've seen a lot of equipment that's gone from both X2 and K56Flex to the V.90 standard. He'll probably say that V.90 isn't totally straightened out, but what he's heard only really applies to end user modem software. I really think this is going to be your best route. I haven't seen a manufacturer yet that hasn't offered the V.90 upgrade for free.
