Subject: RE: Telephone Dial up modem


are you more than 18 thousand feet from your LSP's CO?

Let me put this in words that make more sense: If your Local Service Provider's Central Office is less than 18 thousand feet from your "hardwired" computer, then your service will work (in theory, anyway) on an unloaded cable pair. Loaded/unloaded cable pair is the physical way of countering the capacitive reactance naturally by produced by a copper cable pair. its called inductive reactance. i.e. 'balanced'. All this is meaningless to somebody who just wants their computer to work but you have every right to know it since, after all, you pay the bill every month. The maximum distance allowed on an unloaded copper cable pair is 18 thousand feet. If you are within that distance of the Central Office, then you should be able to use a faster modem. You have every right to know the current loop, the circuit noise, the circuit loss etc, of your service, therefore the data rate. Ask 'em.
