How to increase transfer speed in Kermit

I just bought a 14,400 Modem. However, after trying to download the data from
the VAX in the university, I found the download speed from the mainframe to my
Mac was slow. The transfering speed was about 560 byts in each  TWO seconds. If
the high speed modem worked fine, then the transfer speed should be about
1,440  in ONE second. (Is that right?)
I have check the VAX and the modem there is 14,400. I don't expect that the
speed can  reach 1440 in a second but the speed I got was so slow. How come?

Can anyone help me solve this problem?

You might want to ry increasing the size of the packets being transfered.

Set the packet sizes on your local machine to 1024, also set the packet length
to 1024 on the VAX at your school.  This is accomplished by issuing this
command in kermit.

set pack len 1024
