next to the clock on bottom tool bar you will see 2 computer icons connected to each other.
hold your mouse over it, don't click on it just hold it there and a little box will pop up and tell your connection speed. bps is bytes per second.
example it will say 28000bps, 31333, 45333,49333 50666, 52333, 53333
anything over 49333 is a fast connection.
if i don't connect over 49333 i disconnect and redial.
i'm not sure about aol 53333 is the fastest dial up connection you can have its considered 56k.
your phone line comming into your house from the wall junction box to the computer should be less than a 6 foot extention try to keep it as short as possible. i moved my juction box on the wall closer to the computer its now 18".I AM NO COMPUTER WIZ i'm sure some one else will jump in and help.
but i just disconnect and redial if its like 31000 and i get 49333 and above.you can reconfigure your modem settings but that is way out of my league to explain it without messing it up.
