 DS>> I hear that they all basically run at the same speed



 SL> Hardly, there's...

 

 SL> V.23         1200 bps   (ITU-T)



 HM> 1200/75, or 75/1200. Never 1200/1200. Also V.22 could be 600 bps at

 HM> times, my old Amstrad 2400 supported that. 



I know, I was only quoting the "main" speed.  HST is split-rate also.



 SL> HST         16800 bps   (US Robotics)



 HM> HST was quite a few speeds, initially 9600 I believe, when everyone

 HM> else only had V.22bis.



Quoting current highest speed.



 SL> V.32terbo   21600 bps   (US Robotics)



 HM> Proper V.32terbo is only 19.2k, but USR diddled it and came up with

 HM> 21.6k as long as you're talking to another USR. You can do 19.2k to

 HM> say an AT&T though. 



"Proper" V.32terbo!?  Again, I was quoting current highest speed.  Also,

I *did* say that the list represented only some of the speeds that modems

use.
