What was it back then 14 k modems? I remember sitting on a 33.6 K modem. That was slow enough  especially when it came to viewing pictures. Not too bad for viewing text.

I remember the excitement of moving from 14k to 28.8k then 33k. Configuring Allfix and Proboard, writing in ASCII code, oh yes, very 'Old School'
I even had a Technics 6 CD changer on which I loaded Minerva Disks with Shareware and free ware programs, Peeps would dial in to download progs all night long - with those speeds you had to be on all night. The phone bill costs were horrendous? LOL!!!
