I've tried forcing a HST connect with your board, but then only managed a 
V.32bis (14400) connect.  The method I used was to disable V.34+, V.34, 
V.FC and V.32terbo as has been suggested in the USR echo.  It didn't worry 
me overly that I couldn't get a HST connect - I was just trying out of 
curiosity to see what it was like.  I thought that you must have disabled 
it at your end for some reason?
