Certainly, the whole selling point of the 56k/X2 modems is that you can surf the web faster - meaning that traffic _to_ the enduser (pulled down webpages, music data etc.) has to be greater than with the older 28.8/33.6 modems. The traffic _out_ from the enduser to the 'net is not a problem when surfing :-) /Michael -- | Linux: Turn on...Tune in...Fork out... | | Michael Tempsch, member of Ballistic Wizards, TIP#088, POG#130 | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Cell.Phone:+46 705487554 URL:http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/%7Ed1temp | -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
