With the registered version of AmiTCP, a 28.8 modem connected at 24.0,
and FTP'ing a compressable ASCII file such as an aminet "recent" file, I
have gotten over 5 Kb/sec.  Seems pretty fast.

It wasn't *that* hard to install, although you do have to know things
like your nameserver IP address and whatnot.
