FYI
I had a customer come in to have her laptop configured for my service ( I
see a joke in there somewhere), She was using the CirrusLogic PCMCIA 56K
bps FAX MODEM CARD. It would not connect without three commas after the
number but it connected at 56000 every time! As expected the upload speeds
sucked but she's just a surfer, granted we were dialing from my office to
the same CO where my PRIs terminate. I FTP'd a file down but was only
getting about 3.8kb sustained download but peaked at nearly 6kb. Thought
some of you would like to see that 56k is not just a myth.
