Hi! I have just purchased a Southwestern Bell wireless phone/modem jack system: the main unit connects to a power outlet and to a phone line and the secondary unit is just plugged in into a power outlet and to the modem of my computer. The reason for buying this was to transform a large walk-in closet into an office without having to pull phone lines into the walk-in closet (and without messing with a wireless network). The units seem to work fine - but my connections are very slow (mostly 14'400 for a dial-up modem which usually gave me 44'000).
Does anyone have any info on such wireless phone/jack systems and could they be the cause of the slow connection? Alternatively - could it be the phone lines themselves? (I moved to a new house in the same city and I dial-up the same number, so the only difference is either my phone lines or my setup).
