Depends which 56K “standard” you are using. There were two before v90 standardised things, they had different handshake modifications for negotiating the faster link, and v90 was different again. Some ISPs supported only one of the earlier “standards” for some time after v90 (most v90 modems were firmware switchable between it and one of the older methods or were soft-modems where that switch was in the driver).
- bux93 3y agoK56flex was the one I had. USR modems were pretty expensive. But I think the next one for me was V.92 - not that it mattered greatly, because cable internet was around the corner. https://www.inetdaemon.com/tutorials/computers/hardware/modems/v90.shtml https://www.inetdaemon.com/tutorials/computers/hardware/mode...
