The init string I use is simply:
AT &K0 &M0 &N8
That's all. It turns OFF compression, OFF error correction, and forces
14,400 straight baud rate. Using this string against another player who
also turned off his compression and error correction, we play at speeds
I'd sure consider comparable to full network speed. Rarely do we get
slowdowns. With compression or error correction on, things actually tend
to slow down more.
Anyways, this works awesome for me...
