Okay, two different lines will give two different speeds, although this
should not be an issue with digital ISP lines.
More than likely it could be modem incompatibility.
Certain modems, e.g. Spirit, had a reputation for not connecting
reliably- mostly because their owners invoked god-awful complex strings
instead of AT&F (factory defaults), but others were just unreliable.
I don't know what the story is with digital modems is, but in the days
of analogue modems, I always ran two different modems, because each had
different characteristics and certain modems performed better connecting
to a particular modem.

I understood that this is just SIO to modem communications speed.
