Yes, and the phone number that I dial into is a 56K phone number.  (Connect 
speeds are around about 44K.)  But after that, things seem to go downhill.  
It is my understanding from a Compuserve forum that Compuserve likes a 
maximum of about 40K.  It is not a modem to modem problem, but a Compuserve 
problem.
