It varies, sometimes it's an ATI command. These standard instructions
are great, especially as we get so many to choose from :(

That's normal. V90 and K56 usually give less that 33K upload, whereas
V34+ generally gives 33600 in both directions with a decent line.

Possibly, only trial and error will tell. But I doubt the increase in
upstream speed would justify any reduction in downstream. Unless you do
a *lot* of uploading, it's best to go for the best downstream speed and
take whatever you're given on uploads.
If you do that much uploading, you must be maintaining several large web
sites, so increase your prices enough to pay for ISDN :)
