> I'd personally tweak the dialup modem not to have compression, Ok I'll bite what's the logic behind this in terms of improving the throughput? do you mean the modem on the Linux box, or on the Windoze client (the dial-up box).
Incidently the data lights on the modem and the monitor program in kppp indicate that the modem is stopping starting a lot when transmitting. Given that I'm just doing tcp/ip sessions between the two machines, eg ftp, why wouldn't TX & RX be on nearly 100% of the time? Otherwise somehow today it seems better, not great but better, 2.8Kbs today.
