You can try 'pppstats -w 1'.  This will output a line every second, showing how
many bytes were downloading per second.  I use wmppp.app, a graphical
WindowMaker dock app that I find very handy.

I don't know how to find out what speed I am actually connected at (56000,
36600, 28800 or whatever), but as long as I keep getting over 5kb on my 56k
modem, I am happy :)
