Hi,

Can anyone help. For a couple of days I have been using the OEM r2 of
Win95, and dial up networking works in a slightly different way. Under
Win95 after a connection is established the form tells you that you have
connected and what the negotiated transfer speed is. Under the OEM version
the comparative form tells you that you have connected but gives the speed
as that of communication with the modem, i.e. 115,200. One can check the
negotiated speed by checking in the modemlog.txt file, but it would be
handy to more easily find the negotiated connection speed. Is there perhaps
a registry entry for this? If I am going to perform a lengthy download I
always like to make sure I connect above 28,800.

Any ideas?
