Does my modem really connect at 115Kbps?
My new modem shows my connection speed as 115Kbps, but I thought that was the speed the serial port ran at?
Is my ISP just happier with this modem?

what do you mean "is my ISP happeier with this modem?"
ISP is internet service provider which is the company that provides the servirce.
it you have dsl or cable that speed that you told me is VERY slow. verizon runs at around 1.8mb/s even thou they advertise 3.0mb/s cable is a lil faster then that
just so u know that a dial up modem works at 58 kb/s

search "bandwith test" ull get a few results on first page, see what you really have

Hello there,
The modem is reporting the speed at which the computer is communicating to the modem itself... Not how fast it is talking to the internet provider you use.
To make it show the more useful numbers, open a terminal program such as hyperterm for windows and paste this in:
AT&FS95=1&W
... then press enter.
That will change the modem's configuration file and store the change so that it will, from then on, show you the right speed.
