You're not up to the latest technology.  There are modems now (like Courier
HSTs and Trailblazers) that, through special encoding and channelling 
techniques, can produce throughputs well above 14K bps.  They all run over
standard phone lines.  These modems do error correction themselves, plus
compression to obtain error-free high speed transmission.
