1) Is there a command that will let me see when I connected via dial-up? My university-come-ISP has a 3-hour limit on dial-up, and if I don't pay attention to when I dialed up, a couple of hours later I wonder how much time I have left before I get disconnected.
2) I'm using the apt-method with dselect to download packages. In the bottom right corner of my screen is a number like 3109 b/s. With a 28.8 modem, shouldn't there be another 0 on the ned of that number, or am I misunderstanding what that number means? TIA.
