- Um....I'm not sure where you buy your modems, but wouldn't the maximum
- communication rate of a 14400bps modem be 14400bps? If you can get
- 38400bps out of a 14400bps modem, I'd love to know how you do it.
-
- (You are right, BTW, that most comm programs support 19200 and 38400. I
- would imagine these settings are for hardline connections, not modems.)
-
- Correct me if I'm wrong.
