 How can I get my Boca 33,600 Modem to connect to about 31200 or higher?.
 I have been connecting to high speed modems with the below results.
=  0:16:23  CONNECT 21600/ARQ/LAPM/V42BIS
=  0:31:23  CONNECT 24000/ARQ/LAPM/V42BIS
= 11:19:37  CONNECT 26400/ARQ/LAPM/V42BIS
=  6:35:55  CONNECT 14400/ARQ/LAPM/V42BIS
 Here is what I have in Fdsetup.
