>From looking at it, and reading other lists, the other end has to have a
digital
connection. So, you can't just connect "56k user <-> 56k user"... it must
be done "56k user -> 56k provider with special USR gear".
Also, I remember bringing up the fact that its illegal (in the US) to run
at speeds
over 46k (or similar) over the analog lines... so legally, you can't go
that fast.
I'm assuming that this is going to be overturned shortly, since several
companies
are coming up with 56k technology.
I personally would just assume go ISDN.
