Why my 56K modem can not reach to 56K bps?
The connection speed is decided by both side modems and the telephone line quality. V.90 uses PCM (pulse code modulation) technology, signal level is very sensitive and line quality affects the connection speed a lot. Frankly speaking, 56K bps is idea speed in lab which the telephone line condition is well controlled by equipment. In real world, most of the 56K modem can reach 40K bps. If your connection is below 33.6K bps, make sure that the ISP is support V.90 and your modem have update to V.90 Firmware.
