a buddy of mine runs the bbs that I often connect to and he also happens to 
work for the local telephone company here, he checked all the lines in my 
area back to the main ISP access point and did some minor repairs.  But I 
still connect at 26400.  BUT get this on the BBS at his place his supra shows 
a 33600 (in the led) connection and I only show a 26400 (I have the external 
express so no led) on my end why would this be?
I have tried W , W1, W2 and all three show the port speed upon connect 
(115200) not until I set the S95 register to 1 do I get the modem speed.
here is my init:
AT&F2&D0S95=1S11=35
Is this the correct way to get the modem connect speed?
Thanks
