I don't understand the first part of your report, the 24000 bps part.
The speed used by, and reported by MS-DOS Kermit is the DTE speed, the
binary/bus/computer side of things because that is what it must deal with.
24000 bps is not amongst the choices available for DTE speed.
The modem may communicate a much different rates across the telco
wires, but that is a matter for the analogue side of the modem rather than
for Kermit's code. Clearly, the modem needs to talk at two different speeds,
one for the telco wires and optionally another for the computer DTE side.
What did you tell Kermit to use for the DTE speed, because that will govern
that part of matters?
