For what its worth, you definitely could identify the data rate before windows would report it. I used to listen and when I heard it connect at 26400, Id disconnect and retry until I heard and saw 33.6 or better. Not all of those trunklines were created equal back then.
- eclipxe 14y agoMan I remember those good times. 14400..meh....but 33.6!!! Whoo! 56k modems were a pipe dream. We have it good these days.
- spydum 14y agoI swear my practical peripherals 14.4kbps external modem was faster than my 28.8 and 33.6 at actual throughput (error correction maybe?). Never did the 56k analog.. went 128k ISDN. Having bonded channels was awesome. No cool analog sounds on that though...
