How do I upgrade my Pace 28.8k modem to 33.6k?

FAQ176

Some Pace 28800 modems are upgradeable to 33600. The first step is to identify if your modem falls into this category.
If you have a desktop or NB 34 modem (with a maximum speed of 28,800 bps) and a CE mark on the BABT approval label (found on the underside of the modem), then you can upgrade your modem yourself by downloading a "flash" upgrade utility from the Pace web site.

The Following Pace V.34 desktop modems are not upgradable.
Pace Microlin Gold modem
Pace Netlink Gold/V34 modem
If your modem does not have the CE mark, or is an internal modem, there is no way to upgrade the modem.

Yes, my modem is flash upgradable. What next?
You need to download a program to run on your PC compatible computer which will allow you to update your modem. This program is available from the Pace web site and is called UPGRADE.EXE. Once you have downloaded and installed the upgrade, you should run the program called FLASHUP.EXE and follow the onscreen instructions.
