I'm seeing about half this with a 14.4K modem dialing up to a local
PPP service.  Which, without compression turned on, seems to imply
that a 28.8k modem should give you what you are seeing.

iij-ppp is a terrific client, anybody got any notes on exactly how
to configure it for automatic dialup and/or dialup on demand?
