Larry, let me see if I understand what you said about x2.
If I only connect now at 24000 with a 33.6 modem that if I switch to a 56K that is not going to change?

But I might experience a download or downstream as you refer to it of perhaps higher with a x2 then I presently receive??

I looked at 56K modems yesterday, and if I received the correct information, it would connect just as my present 33.6 does even though it is a 56K, and would only switch to 56K if the server has the capabilities of 56K, is this correct assumption??

I dont have a problem buying one, but want to make sure that it will work like my present one, unless I connect to a 56K server..

Would appreciate your input.

Thanks.

Gary
