-> I need some help with my modem.  I just got one of those cheap
-> USRobotics Sportster WinModem.  The box says it's a 22.8, but the
-> guy at the shop said it's actually a 33.6 inside.  I loaded up and
-> got going no problem, but when I look at the connect speed it is
-> 24000/ARQ/V34/LAPM. Is there something I'm missing to get it to bump
-> up to 33.6 speed. Or am I lost totally and I don't understand how it
-> all works?  I use Telix for Windows and went through the Rescan
-> process and it picked the modem as a USRo Sportster v.32  There are
-> other options such as USR Sportster 288000 v.34, or  Sportster 28800
-> v.FC. etc.  Which one should I pick.  Are there spe additions I need
-> to program to the modem to make it see 33.6, since  is written for
-> 28.8?  How does this work? Thanks for any help.
-> Henri
If you want 33.6, you must download a special file from US Robotics and
run it.  That file will make your modem a 33.6.
