Most of the time, there is no need to use a bps above 19,200bps.
Unless the data is very structured or has lots of empty space
(database or spreadsheet) the compression won't get you over
19,200bps. When the modem refuses to work above 19,200 or doesn't
work well, it is usually hardware on the computer (slow serial
port or some other conflict even on a fast computer). Set the
software and dialing directory for 19200. Make sure CTS/RTS flow
is=ON. And locked DTE (baud/bps) rate (software does NOY follow
modem connect speed).
On the other hand, never set the modem BELOW 19,200 either.
If you get a 12,000 or 14,400 connect the software and modem may
not speak to each other correctly.
