This is correct - at least as it applies to USR's implementation of 
V34+.   Apparently the symbol tables are more robust.  Two identical
USR V34 Couriers which were connecting (over a somewhat marginal path)
at 24,000 bps previously, now consistently achieve 26,400 bps. The
only change was the new V34+ firmware was added.

This doesn't mean to imply that V34+  to  V34+ will always yield
an improvement, tho it may and often does.  I have one V34+ Courier
site I call which still connects with me at 26.4 and always has, but 
we know why.... there are a total of 8 d/a conversions in that circuit
path.  Frankly I'm thrilled to get 26.4 through it.



Will other manufacturer's V34+ implementation offer similar speed 
improvement over less than ideal conditions?
