There are quite a few factors affecting your modem speed. You can find some usefull info. at the above website. Alternatively, try to get hold of Windows NT 4.0 OS if you think you will surf the net a lot. It's expensive, but worth the investment in the long run.

You don't have to change your OS. 1) Check your network stack, remove any unneeded protocols, that will decrease login time and improve performance. 2) If you're running win95, update your winsock files. 3) And of course tweak, tweak, tweak!! ISpeed is cheesey little app. but it works. Set your UART to max, this will increase your download performance.
