Hmm, let me see:

AT&F   Restore factory defaults; seems a good idea
W1     CONNECT result code reports DTE speed; I prefer default of DCE speed
&D3    Reset on on-to-off DTR transition; er um er
&S0    This is default, so unnecessary (force DSR high/on)
%C2    Its not in my manual (PACE web site) = what does it do ?
S95=46 My manual allows for S to be a max of 72 so ???   

For now, I will stick to my invented if slightly sad:
ATZ%C0L1S37=18\B9

At least the CBNLs have gone away :-)

Xposted and FUs tweaked.
