As far as I'm concerned 56 or 53K is a farce. My US Robotics 24000 connected
at 24000, my USR 33600 connected at 24000 and my so called 56K connects at
24000. I have tried every suggestion given to me and still same 24000
connects.
I now several people that claim the same connect speed. I wonder what the
percentages are for people seeing a big improvement after going to 56K.
