The whole idea seems strange, because since the dawn of time, modems have known how to negotiate speeds (down) to get a reliable connection.

Since modems exceeded 28.8 they started having problems negotiating down to a very low speed if the line quality is bad. While they probably could eventually do it, the software times out before negotiation is successful. Capping a modem's speed speeds up the negotiation process.

Does anybody use that configuration?

NHL's back. Anyone notice...or care.
