Marianne,
the UART chip controls the rate at which your computer and modem transfer
information (or speak to each other). The modem speed and the line factor
are the components that control the rate at which you download data.

Hello everyone :-)
As I see it, this all depend on how much you want to pay
for your downloading. Personally I have a computer from
1993, 33 mhz, modem 28 800 bps.
To follow the speed of today, I have to purchase a card,
16 550 UART. This will make the speed available to
57 600 - 115 200 bps. (in DOS you can see which UART
your computer is running. Give the command MSD).
To download a chart will only take some seconds.
Hope this helps.
:-) Marianne
