I get 48000 99% of the time using a Zoom 2919. Others have complained of problems with this modem. The quality of your telephone line, to the local trunk and in some cases your house wiring can be a factor.

>>I have never know anyone to get over 41KB using a 56KB modem. It's nice to hear that some are, but I don't know anyone. Are you using one. My lines won't support it, so I went with ISDN.<< I use my T1 line at work. But I post on the COMS thread a lot and there has been extensive discussion on 56K modems. If you have a technical question, Dick Smith would be happy to answer you. He's more technically knowledgeable about the x2 56K modems. Also, if you go to the 3Com web page, there's a phone # there which you can call and test your modem. I think it might be mentioned in the FAQ page. joe
