Well that's odd Paul. What your saying is that you get:
good results by disabling x2 (S32=32 [or S32.5=1 as you say])
but bad results by disabling V.90 and enabling V.8(S32=66)
or by disabling x2 and enabling V.8 (S32=34)
or by disabling x2 and V.90 and enabling V.8 (S32=98).
This begs the question of what happens when you don't enable V.8 when you disable V.90 (try both S32=64 or S32=96). Do you know what protocols are being run at your POP? Have you run the modem diagnostics (look under "Modulation" after entering "ATI11") to see what protocol you're running with when you use S32=32? The modem diagnostics (both ATI6 and ATI11) are excellent in showing you exactly what's going on with your connection. Again the initial connection rate doesn't tell all: the diagnostics will tell you how many times the speed increased and decreased and what the speed was at call termination. The diagnostics will also tell you something about the line quality and distance to your POP by looking at the Recv/Xmit Level, Round Trip Delay, etc. One of those links on my thread contains very detailed information about how to interpret the diagnostics. Sure takes away from the gaming time though.
