| u might get better now and then but most likely you will need a new modem. I got me a laptop recently and it logs me in at 40 kbps all the time. Dial is should been dead but a few people still use it. It would be best if you go to high speed if possible. |

Do you have NetZero unlimited or NetZero Hi-Speed 3G, which is suppose to be accelerated?
I tried NetZero 3G once, I think the login was around 42kbps.
I have AOL dialup now and it logs me in at 49kbps all the time.
I know what most people think about AOL, but the 49kbps login is why I keep it. I've tried several ISP's and didn't get anywhere near 49kbps. |

Connect speed is a function of telephone network. V.90/92 modems require that one and only one digital-to-analog conversion exist between ISP and customer. Most likely your phone line is on some form of pair gain that allows phone company to multiplex multiple customers over a single circuit.
If you are interested in the gory details I've posted more info on my site:

Why any manufacturer can't produce modem with more than speed of 56 k. There are a lot of manufacturer companies working in the manufacturing of modems. Dialup internet is rapidly losing his users because of low speed modem.

Why any manufacturer can't produce modem with more than speed of 56 k. Dialup is constrained to 56 kbps because voice is digitized at the Central office at rate of 64 kbps. However, other technical constraints limit speed to somewhat less then 64 kbps. If you are on an ISDN line you would be able to use full 64 kbps.
Check out link I posted for technical details.
Bottom line dialup is a good as it will ever be. V.90/92 are clever designs that optimize speed based on topology of modern telephone network.
