Date: Sat, 31 May 1997 10:50:30 -0400 (EDT) To: rob@fuse.net Subject: New Miserable (56k) Experience Rob, Some 56k Data for you: I did a download from fuse using netscape (jpegview 566k) after connecting at 36,000 to the 0709 number. The download started at 4.3k and dropped a little to between 4.0 and 3.9k and stayed right around there, then at around 25k, it paused for a pretty long time (10-20 seconds) and then began again at 2.9 to 3.0k (stayed that way to the end) Then I called the 5335 number, got a 31200 connect and started the same download. it started at 4.3 and dropped to 3.4 almost immediately and then stayed pretty much right there the whole time. Then I reconnected to the 0709 number and downloaded paint shop pro (1907k) It started at 4.7 and quickly dropped to 3.6 then at 6% there was a 10 - 20 second puase and it picked back up at 2.5 and then worked back up to 3.0. Then at 15% I got dropped. Then I reconnected to 5335 and downloaded it getting right around 3.0 the whole time. Then I went to bed with eudora pro running the whole time and the connection stayed up for 11 hours.
