- i sent up 2 1/2 hours of zips today to a friend who has a 4/18 sportster
- with my courier modem and i can insure you that the speed changed from
- 28 to 26 and to 28 back again several times. when i finished with the
- last zip it was up again to 28/28 running about 3300 or so cps.
-
- the message fallback disabled is meaningless.. if fall back is disabled
- that just means the modem did not change its rate in the last connectioon
- and the opposite when it says enabled.
