subject: Modem speed

Hi Everyone,

  I have a Netcomm Roadster 288 which has the 33.6Kbps sticker on it. This
I assume it works as a 33.6K modem. 

  Just to verify with anyone out there that has a 33.6K modem:

  assuming the connection is at 33.6K and the line is fairly free of noise,
what speed should the data transfer be for a 1 Meg Zip file using Z-modem
through a BBS be? 

  At the moment I get the speed of around 3200 cps + or - 100 cps on most
days when I download files from BBS using Z-modem on Q-modem pro for Win
95. Is this a fairly alright speed or is my modem a fake 33.6K fax modem??

  Thanks for any info.
