56K ITU V.90 Standard

If you are able to connect to an ISP using the V.90 standard the modem will be able to
download files at a maximum speed of 56 kilobits per second (Kbps), over standard
telephone lines. Download speeds will vary with telephone line conditions.
When using the V.90 standard, download speeds are faster than upload speeds. The
maximum download speed is 56 Kbps and the maximum upload speed is 33.6 Kbps.
Transmission rates will vary depending on telephone line conditions.
The V.90 and K56flex protocols are designed only to increase the download
transmission rate from V.90 or K56flex compliant digital sources. Maximum
achievable download transmission rates are currently unknown, may not reach
56 Kbps, and will vary with telephone line conditions.

Introducing the Compaq Digital DSL/56K Modem

(available on select models)
Your Internet PC is equipped with a Digital DSL/56K Modem (G.lite/G.dmt/V.90).
This revolutionary combination modem allows you to use the high-speed broadband
data communications technology known as Digital Subscriber Line (DSL).
DSL technology utilizes the bandwidth not used on standard telephone lines for data
communications.
Please contact your telecommunications and Internet service provider (ISP) about the
availability of DSL service in your area. The availability of DSL service may vary
depending on your location.
For more information about DSL and information on how to subscribe to DSL
service, visit the following Compaq High-Speed Web site:

NOTE: Before establishing a DSL connection to the Internet, you must establish DSL service with your
telecommunications service provider and ISP.
If you choose to continue using analog technology for your Internet connections, the
56K ITU V.90 Standard is supported by your Digital DSL/56K Modem. Connection
speeds vary based on the type of service available from your ISP and on telephone
line conditions. For more information, refer to the Using Your Modem with the 56K
