I have two standard US Robotics (3 Com) 56K V.90 modems. Can they
communicate to each-other at 56K? I don't think so. The fastest they have
connected is 33,600 bps. I'm pretty sure that a standard 56K modem can only
download to 56K and upload at 33,600.

I was told that I would have to have my telco split off a channel of my T1
for a user to connect to us at 56K. Is this true? Does this mean the telco
has the 56K server or ISP modem? Is there a special type of modem I should
purchase on the server or ISP end?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Confused,
