Can I upgrade the internal modem to 33.6 Kbps by installing some type of software update?
If you have Geoport modem, you can install the GeoPort & Express Modem Updater (v3.1.1 or greater). This update provides support for V.34 protocols, which allow data transfer at speeds up to 33.6 Kbps. The software is available at Apple’s Software Updates site at the following path: US -> Macintosh -> Networking-Communications -> Apple_Telecom. You can also install the Telecom software from the Mac OS 8 CD. The Apple Telecom software is available in the CD Extras folder on the CD. There is no software upgrade available to allow the Global Village Teleport Platinum V modem to transfer at speeds up to 33.
