Re: bandwidth

note that baud as in J.M.E. Baudout is a measurement of the signalling 
rate of a communications channel not the data rate. so if you have only 
two level (binary modulation) then baud is the same as bps, otherwise it 
isn't...

In all instances in the previous two messages you mean Kb/s

As far as I know, telephone line can support baudrate up to 2400 baud per 
second. So what does it mean 56 baud per second? 

Is it not too slow to transfer bitrate of 56k?

I have a 56k v.90 and v.92 modem. 56 bps is baud per second correct, not
bits per second. Of course the phone line will only handle 52k but is the
difference between v.90 and v.92 in bits no baud?
High speed bandwidth is coming to my area. Speeds such as 100-200 bps
will be available. This sounds like DSL to me because we already have
cable
modems.
