Identify dialup and broadband users

Hi, I have been tasked with trying to identify what percentage of our web site users are using dialup or broadband. I have looked at TCP::RTT and TCP::BANDWIDTH, but the figures are all similar. Most ISP's who offer dialup hide users behind proxy servers, so the RTT info & even the client ip address are in fact the ISP's proxy server. Any thoughts on how I could do this ?

    In theory this could be done but what you are talking about is something that is one of the most difficult items to ascertain. I don't think you will ever get a true answer to this.
