If you have a point to point connection and are running "pppd" then you
can specify the serial device and speed when you start "pppd".

Example:
  /usr/sbin/pppd /dev/ttyS1 38400 ...
where ... stands for other parameters passed to "pppd".

This is what I do. Of course you may have to change ttyS1 to the
appropriate device. I'm using a USR 33.6k internal fax/modem and I
typically connect at 31.2k with this setting.
