I am unable to test out this using my current equipments at the moment but if any Trap17 members out there using dial up connections, could you post your results? Maybe you can use bandwidth test to post your results both upload and download. If possible try using one bandwidth testing place like here http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/

And is this United States only or does it work around the world? I'd be interested to find out the results.

worth a try! though the connection speed could simply be superficial. using the suggested AT&FX fix, it shows in my modem that i am connected at 115.2 Kbps, but using the speedtest above, it gives me 37.8 kilobits per second.
