G'day John,

 JP> In my experience with 33600 modems (USR and Rockwells), I've never
 JP> personally managed a 33600 connect. I have connected Courier to M34F,
 JP> Courier to Courier, generic Rockwell to M34F, yet I've never managed
 JP> 33600. I've also never seen inbound 33600 connects. 31200 seems

I have a no-frills rockwell 33.6k modem, and when dialing under a Win95 
terminal program I can consistently connect to the Banksia BBS (418-7693) - 
this is a call from Cronulla (Miranda exchange) to Lane Cove - at 33.6k . 
However, when I tried this under Binkley's (v2.59c) terminal program, I only 
managed a 31.2k connect.

Now, I'm not all that close to the Miranda exchange - about 6kms, but at least 
it shows that 33.6k connects across town aren't all that elusive.

I did the same test on your BBS but only got 31.2k on both occasions :(
