 WG> USR's implementation of V.FC isn't quite as good as Zoom's as far as
 WG> connect speed.  But, of course, it is superior in that it constantly
 WG> probes the line and changes speeds as necessary.  On normal
 WG> voice-quality phone lines that are using the digital switching
 WG> stations, don't expect a connect much higher than 21.6.  Now, V.34 on
 WG> the other hand, you can sometimes get 26.4 and even 28.8. It has a lot
 WG> to do with how your phone lines are wired.  The more direct the line
 WG> (with no junction boxes, etc.) and if you use shielded wire, the
 WG> better your connects will be.
