I > think negotiation is taking a lot longer. > It seems we have a similar problem, I have a MagicXpress 56K modem which i flashed to v90 ages ago, and everything was fine. I was getting connections of around 40-44K everytime. But just recently I downloaded the latest version of the flash upgrade, and was suprised to find that my modem would no longer connect at V90 speeds, just 31200 BPS. This only happened with Prestel however because I logged onto FreeServe and got my usual 44K connection, but it did take a couple of attempts, Prestel was having none of it. So I reverted back to the original upgrade which I luckily had a backup of. Any Ideas, is this a problem with the providers or the flash upgrades. See Ya
