Can anyone answer my Q of why, if i have a 56k modem does it only connect at 28k - it is just the slowest connection ever!

If you can't get faster than 28k, you might find it's a little faster (or at least faster connecting) if you disable 56k on the modem

What make and model modem. What OS are you running. Have you always had this problem with this connection? Try removing all phones from there jacks,try connection again or try other phone jack.
