Once apon a time David Drummond said, 'MODEMS FOR A BBS' to Greg Ward...



 GW> As for connecting at 33.6k , my best connect at present has

 GW> been 32.4k (quite a few times) but mostly 28.8k. I'm happy

 GW> with this result as I live A LONG way from my exchange and

 GW> in an area with BAD phone lines.



 DD> . . .[chomp]. . .



 DD> 32.4K??? I've never heard of that speed.  The next speed down from

 DD> 33.6k on my modem is 31.2k



I've seen a Win95 modem driver for a 33.6K modem reporting a 31104 connect

when its actually a 31200 connect. Go figure ;-)



Presumably the modem driver is bluffing, not the modem...



Regards,

Simon
