Whiteboard w/ a <33.6kbps speed

[Gabrielle]

I have a problem using whiteboard with my contacts. It
connects, sometimes long enough for someone to quickly
scribble a line, and then disconnects by itself.
Sometimes the title bar only says "not in a call." Now,
I noticed on the Windows Messenger website that it says:

For application sharing, both parties also need:
A modem with a speed of 33.6 Kbps or faster and a working
connection speed of 33.6 Kbps or higher.

I have a connection speed of, on average, 26kbps. Do you
think that that is the source of the problem, or
something I might be able to fix?

That could very well be the problem. But GOD! THAT'S SLOW! But then I'm used
to 100mb/sec each way!
