The fastest I have ever seen is 53k but sometime it is also the maximum possible speed of the dialup number that limits the connection speed. I have one customer who cannot connect to greater than 32k with Earthlink's local numbers. Try using a different local number, if one exists, and see if the connection speed differs.
