You might try adding something like, MS=V34B,33600 to your modem string, so that your modem doesn't expect to be part of a faster connection. This is mine (your's will be different because you likely have a different manufacturer, but you can experiment): ATW2&F+MS=V34B,1,0,33600 In the U.S. private companies aren't any better. I'm stuck with a 31.2k maximum connection speed because of bad copper. And, the exchange I'm on is an ancient analog, so DSL would require not only new lines but new switchgear. The local privopoly telco is only required by the gov't to furnish 14.4k (fax) capability. In rural areas like mine, there isn't any profit incentive to force them to upgrade. GRRRRR
