Excellent, I appreciate being able to see what speed my 56k users
are really connecting at.  Here's another possible feature request
(posted to the list to see if anyone else is interested):

How about reporting the current TX/RX instead of the rates at connect
time?  I'm not sure how possible that is, but it would be nice to see
what rates people are really getting (Many el-cheapo modems are 'tweaked'
to connect at as high a rate as possible, then rapidly shift down...
It would be good to know that was why the user has such a slow transfer
speed.)
