I think its distinctly arguable if its a very satisfactory way to
actually do the line speed stuff. I find it extremely hard to believe that
the line really does change, and mostly improve, in such a short time.

They are in fact deliberately choosing to start to low for some reason.

Even sillier with a V32bis call, the modems negotiate a 14400
connect fine, and then the damned USR virtually IMMEDIATELY demands
a retrain, on every single call I have made so far. Nuts IMO.
