I have some sort of Lucent that usually connects at bout 50K.  I have I
connect at 24 and 28.8 K.  That is a Bell South problem.  When I get a slow
connect I go back in and get a reaonable connect rate.  I keep bugging them
about this. Your modem is probably suffering from a bad firmware problem.

I worked as a modem test engineer and know that a lot of the modems out here
have have bad firmware which prevents them from connecting at higher
speeds.  I have an older Hayes V.34 which connects at 19.4 most of the time
and at 24.K on a good day, even though it is supposed to support 30K
connections.

This is reality.  I am happy to have found a Lucent internal modem which
gives me close to 33K.

Let me know if I can help you.

Regards,

John
