I know this is an old thread but the topic is related to what I'm after. I too live in the bush so have to live with dial up. I was having drop out problems and my speed dropped from 44kbps to 28kbps ( on my laptop ) Telus took 6 months to get here and replace the old line to my house. ( another story ) That solved the drop out problem but I'm still way slower than I was 3 years ago. I've given up on trying to contact them. I've got 2 desktops a Celeron 999Mhz and a P4 2.4Mhz and a Acer Laptop 1.7Mhz . The laptop dials up at 36kbps and the desktops are 26kbsp. If I take my laptop to town it with do 52kbsp! For my desktops I found the US Robotics PCI modems are the fastest. I re build computers so have access to lots of older parts so I tried a lot of modems. I was tempted to install a " new" modem to see if the've gotten faster. so am shopping around. I want a new US Robotics PCI but they are only offering external?? Are external better? Chris if your still around?
