John,
  I have both the Hayes K56Flex and the USR X2.  One of my providers has 
not finished installing the equipment for the K56Flex yet, so that one 
is untested at this time.  The USR Sportster gets anywhere from let's 
4400 to 5300 per session.  And it can go as low as 1.0 or below if there 
is a lot of traffic.  Personally I have ISDN in the back of my mind 
which has to be far better than 56k anything.  Sure it's expensive but, 
I am thinking because I am glued to at least one provider on a more or 
less 20 hour day, I might just give it a go.
