Especially for traveling users and such this may be a exercise in futility.
I believe that to get 56k you can only have a certain number of changes from analog to digital and such. Most hotels will kill this going through a PBX. Even for home users in the LEC makes a change somewhere in their system you are screwed. If the phone lines are just a little dirty it is not going to get 56k. We are setting up PC based VPN's and letting people get there own ISP if they want higher speeds. Then they can choose their speed and technology of choice. If their manager wants to pick up the cost they can ask the company for reimbursment. -----Original Message----- From: Warren Cundy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 11:30 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: 56k Modem Question I just need dial-in access for a few users who are complaining about the current modems (28.8k). But what I'm getting is that if I buy a 56k modem (standard USR v.90), dial-in users with 56k will still only connect at 33.6k? My options are to go digital, which seems very expensive for what I need, which is 1-2 dial-in lines at this speed. -Warren > -----Original Message----- > From: Tim Rutherford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 6:44 AM > To: NT 2000 Discussions > Subject: RE: 56k Modem Question > > > How about using one leg of an ISDN line? that would be 64k > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Tony Valiantis > Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2002 8:11 PM > To: NT 2000 Discussions > Subject: RE: 56k Modem Question > > > As far as I know, a 56k modem, when connected to a digital > device at the > other end, will allow 56k download and 33k upload.
