Thanks to you both!

Sounds like I should download and then burn a CD of what I get.
This modem thing is getting annoyinger and annoyinger; I've started
using the modem monitor and it seems I usually get about 21k-24k at
home. That's with the modem rated at 33.6k! If I get the latest
patches for my TP600 to bring it up to 56k, will I get anything
faster than 21-24k, or will it slow down even further?

Thanks!

andrew
