Well, it would be easier to report if it showed up in show users, or via SNMP. However, when I was running i13, I saw 56k connects (rarely, but there) and it was indeed via a modem, not ISDN 56k. So yes, it's possible outside a labratory. Rare, but possible. I have no idea how connect speeds are doing now, however, since Ascend refuses to unlink transmit and recieve rates. (Which should have been released in 5.0, since it's not a 56k issue, split speeds happen in v.34 as well. Either give us a new incremental with the new modem code, or release 5.1... and I'd prefer a new incremental, because apparently your test labs are doing a great job.
