this is great, but everything loads WAY too fast. It took forever to get anything to load back in the day.
That's likely due to most phone lines not supporting the full 56k speed. In most areas you would be lucky to get 33.6k or 28.8k.
How is that related to phone lines, and not the dial up access point you’re dialing into?iirc ISDN did require a special phone line, but 56k was fine over regular lines.
56k modems is an application of Shannon’s Theorem.You only got max speeds where the noise was low enough.
