The point was to connect to the internet at 56kbps or maximum FCC allowed speed and use the multiplayer functions of my FS.
I installed it properly but my connection speed stays as it has always been, 26.4 kbps.
My ISP is V.92 compatible and supports 56kbps data rate. My local dial-up numbers are all V.92 compatible.
All phone line connections are good, otherwise I would see variations in the 26.4 kbps data rate which has remained fixed for over nine months, no matter the time of day.
The girl at office max, customer assistant/ super model, said the modem I was getting was a 56 kbps modem and her eyes sparkled when she said it so I believed her with all my heart and soul. More importantly, the specs said it handles the 56kbps data rate.
All my modem settings have been checked and double checked for the fastest rate possible.
Where am I going wrong?
