According to the revised online guide, the max number for S95 is 43.
However, I have tried both settings, and I get either a CONNECT or a CONNECT 
300 response.
I will be doing some further "fiddling" later today and I will let you know 
what is going on.
I will also include the AT&V1 readings after each attempt.
