You must have a pretty good phoneline to get the same connection speed
all the time. However it is likely that the rate will change as you
are online. You can hear it if you have a phone connected to the same
line as you will hear noises which sound like the connection being
re-negotiated. At least, that is what I assume the noise is.
> Collecting mail with YAM 1800-2800cps
Thats faster than I have ever had.
> Downloading Aminet files with Voyager 4600-6800cps with an initial burst of about
>12288cps
This is excellent, I have transfer rates like this quite a bit.
> Getting News (just the headers) with Microdot-II 2000-5800cps
Again this seems perfectly reasonable to me.
