Slow D/L using macPPP

Hi,
My mac has recently started to download files at a much lower rate than
it should. I am using  14.4k modem but can only get rates of 600bps on
binary files and 12-1300bps on text files. Uploads seem to go at the
'normal' rates of 1600 and 2800 respectively.

I am using a mac LCII with a Dynalink 1414VQE modem and MacPPP 2.2.0.
I recently installed the ARA client but I am not sure if this problem
happened before or after I installed it.

Any ideas on what may be causing this?

Thanks in advance.
Michael.
