This is true! The connection speed indicated at the log on screen is only a reference and not a true connection speed. The telephone line has too many variables. Lunch time and after 3:30pm are always slower. I did notice that connecting under 48,000 will show a big difference.
P.S. Running quote.com or a level II will stop AOL from asking "do you want to stay online" Nice to keep the computer on all day without being disconnected
