Just remember, just as not all ISPs are equal .. neither are modems. External hardware ones normally work better than internal software modems.
I get 54.6k on my 56k at almost all times.
56K is only a theoretical maximum, and is only ever obtained in laboratory conditions.
It used to average around 44k, until I messed around with the settings or ages using guides on several sites, and it's now up to 54.6k.
