I have a USR 56k fax modem (internal, ISA) product# 00568703. I am trying to get a better connect speed than 45k. I used to have an Eiger winmodem and I noticed it had an adjustment for line current. Is this only with winmodems? Anything else I could do on my modem to push it? I tried to force the speed with the &N and it wouldn't connect even one level faster. Thanks. Great site.

The modem will go for the highest rate line conditions and server modem will permit, and there's no sure way of improving that.
Changing ISPs may give different (better or worse) results.
Disconnecting other devices connected to your phone line may help -
