- I have a SupraFaxModem V.34 since November and it has worked FLAWLESSLY with
- minimal modem strings. To my ISP, I get 28.8k about 75%, 26.4k about 23%, and
- <26.4k about 2%. To CompuServe I get 28.8k 100% of the time.
-
- Of course, sometimes the modem does negotiate up and down depending on the
- current line quality....I've never dropped below 24k from my home. I think I
- have been blessed with a good line...
