Hmmm. I always thought you needed to set both. I always set both on my Supra,
whichever order, and it seems to work fine. Actually, S95=111 (on the
Supra, at least) will report both speeds in the CARRIER response on a
split-rate V.34 connection (even if the connection isn't actually
split-rate, but merely allows it.)

Yes, although as I mentioned previously one of mine has met with an early
demise due to my tinkering. I just might go out and buy one of those new
Spirits Dave Hatch talks about, $199 at Hardly Normal sounds ok. Should be
$140 anywhere else. :-)
