   I currently have phone service through the local provider who has long   
   switched over from all copper wiring to having the signal transmitted via   
   cable... the same one that provides TV and internet... to a phone "modem"   
   that is hooked up to my interior copper wiring in the house.   
      
   I am able to connect at 9600 to 14.4k outbound and have it usually be   
   reliable, but nothing greater than that.  Inbound calls seem to be reliable   
   at lower than or equal 9600 sometimes, but often are only reliable at much   
   lower speeds.  I am not sure what type of system these callers have on   
   their end (i.e. old fashioned copper, via internet, etc.).   
      
   Phonenet sounds interesting.  As the connections would presumably also be   
   coming over my internet/TV cable connection, would there be any reason I   
   might expect better connection quality than I currently get?
