Hi again,
What are the modem speeds your getting on your 603e/v Macs? I have a 5400/180 and using a Best Data 56k v90 Smart One external modem and its all over the place. My son (8 blocks away) uses an iMac DV and consistently gets 45333 speeds with the same service provider I am using.
Is it the modem or the architecture of the 5400/180?

I use a Best Data 56k v90 external modem. on my 7X00 series hybrid. When using the Best Data drivers the best I could ever do was 47,600 ( kbps ?). I have used the Earthlink Mac modem driver for several years and Remote Access always reports 57, 600.
I'm sure someone will challenge this as an erroneous mark but I have tried different drivers side by side and it is definitely the fastest.
It even worked with one of the other ISPs before I could get a local dialup number for Earthlink here.
I don't know about the 5400 or how modem handling would be different for it. But it may be your phone line connection ( wires on the pole ) or the modem driver.
