Anthony, USR Support and everyone,

I thought I was doing something wonderful when I downloaded the V90 upgrade,
but found out afterwards that was not the case. I am now getting lower
connection rates and slower downloads. I want to undo this too and I hope
someone can tell me/us how? I was connecting at 54,666 before V90 upgrade and
now connecting between 46,666 and 50,666 (usually the lower speed) and that
is a big difference. BTW... I have a Sportster 56K Voice Faxmodem EXT.

Thank you! Ray

I cant even get an upgrade. I've been waiting for months. When v.90
modems are being sold for less than I paid for my x2. The advisor has been
delaying me again and again.

wait.

I have a Sportster WinModem. I was using X2 but thought I might
get a little more speed from V.90 & X2 upgrade from 3Com.
Now I connect mostly at 28K with download speeds of .5K .
Even when I connect at 42K or something it still downloads at
.5K. I was doing fine with X2! 3Com upgrade sucks!

Now I'll probably have to delete everything and re-install it all
to get back to X2 only! Your not missing a thing!
