Tom: Some representative posts from x2 trial users on AOL:
==================================================
Subj: My connect rate: 45333bps
Date: Thu, 27 Feb 1997
From xxxxx
That is the highest baud rate I can get on the NYC access Number. I know it isn't my line, because i get smooth 28800 bps or 31200 bps most of the time.
i'd expect at least 52000bps.
X2 really does make a difference!

I was only able to connect bewteen 46K and 48K. I Live in Southern CA, and I was using the San Fran# and the 888 #. I have USR 56K External, and all code is up to date. Anyone Know when AOL will expand the 56K Trial?

I've never connected at better than 28,800 with my 33.6, and that was very rare. But right now I am connected at 46,600 with my 56.6, and there is a noticable improvement in speed.

Re: Has anyone else from the VA suburbs had problems getting online at x2 speeds?
I live in rural Loudoun County, and get X2 into the 888# and the DC# everytime. I get 46666k about 90% of the time, 48000k about 9% of the time, and have had an occaissional 33333k and a 50k once.

Hope this is helpful.
