My Dad was on 14.4k until I made him get a new iMac last year. Upgraded to 56k in 2002, he is so up with modern times.

Is a 15.6k/sec dl speed on a 56k good?

Saying that it's usually cruising at 4k/sec. DEATH TO NARROWBAND! YEAH!

He was probably downloading ascii stuff or something... If you use compression on your connection(which most people do), then you can download uncompressed stuff like text alot faster than 5k/s. Only really is noticable if your downloading usenet headers for alt.binaries.multimedia.erotica or some other great mass of text...

I love people who have internet connections and don't understand what they're capable of.
