Yeah, I did! :-)

BG> Do your dialling directory speeds match your port speed?  They should.

Port was 57600, dialling directory 38400. But Telix seemed to
understand that, it changed (at least on the status line, presumably
also in reality) to 38400 when I called Paul.

So I changed them both to 57600, got a terrible connect - seemed like
300 baud. Changed them both to 38400, got a "normal" 2400 connect. I
wouldn't necessarily say that was caused by what I changed as this
problem is intermittent as I've said.

Still working on this one, maybe Paul will replace the USR before we
resolve it.

Regards, FIM.
