Hi everyone! 
 
I've been using an Avtek FlashModem 288 v.34 with the Cooee comms 
package and want to know what is an acceptable CPS download rate using 
Z-Modem when I've connected at 28800/V34/V42BIS to a host system 
running Netcom 28.8's (ie Melb PCUG BBS during the morning) about 30km 
from where I live. The Avtek is using the Motorola chipset. 
 
After beginning a typical download, it starts out at 3000+ CPS; after 
{at}60 seconds and a few CRC errors (say 8), it drops back to {at}1500 CPS 
then, depending on the file size, mellows out to {at}1300 CPS five minutes 
and a few more CRC errors later. 
 
Is this an acceptable sort of performance? If not any ideas on what I 
could do to improve it, besides buying a Dynalink :) 
 
Any help appreciated. Thanks.
