One thing to keep in mind is that if you up the download you lower the upload.&U13&N16 is 13= 26400bps 16= 33600bps

David you might try this string also.
S13=64S32=98&U9&N16

as far as I know, the 5686D has no method of controlling upstream, &u and &n control downstream rates

(v.Richard edited post to change incorrect &d to &n)

Thanks again for all the info.
I added the:
&U13&N16
as charles suggested, & am getting 26.4 most of the time.
I still have not tryed calling the phone company to check my line. I am in my peak busy season at work, & haven't had much spare time lately

If you're still having problems, give the telco a call and tell them you're having problems faxing. If you tell them you're having modem problems, they won't really care.

This link is just for info.

hmm, Charles. Never thought of that. It makes sense because the telco promises 14.4k and faxing goes at 14.4k. Here's something else:

I have the Ameritech LineBacker plan, and my friend doesn't. We both have poor wiring in our house, and I called Ameritech and just told them that my max connect was a flaky 16.8, and they immediately sent a person, who eventually replaced and rewired a majority of my house.

My neighbor called with the max of 14.4, and they just shrugged him off about 3 or 4 times now.
