Re: modem RX rate is considerable slower than RX rate



try to disable the V90 protocol on the modem, the way v90 works is it
connects at the best speed it can, then after its connected if the line is
noisy it dynamically drops the speed without dropping the connection, the
speed can go back up after..but yeah sounds like it could be a
compadiblity issue with the isp

all i can suggest at this point is turn off V90 (see your modem docs to do
it, its usually one of the AT commands) and try again,
