No, you didn't.

Assuming that you mean a 14,400 modem, sending a 3 megabyte file took you 27 minutes under the best of conditions. To send a 3 megabyte file in 45 seconds would require a modem with an upload speed of around 533,000 bits per second, which is about 15 times faster than the fastest standard analog modems ever marketed.
