If Miami works, then why not keep using it!  As for another device for
AmiTcp, why not use SLIP or CSLIP that come with AmiTCP in the first
place?  None of them have Built in dialers though.  The ONLY one with
a Dialer built in would be AmiPPP.  So if you want to use the
ppp.device then use AmiPPP.

 How do you know Miami is really working at 115200 baud?  You do know
a Normal Amiga is not going to support such a speed in the first place
don't ya?  Really need a 040 or 060 processor, and even then it's a
maybe.  SOme people say you can with a 030, but I had no luck with my
50Mzh 030 on my A1200. But then I don't use a 640x200 mode, but a High
Res MultiScan Productivity mode which is more depanding, and Screen
depth also makes a differance.  Best way is with a differnt serial
port other then commodores outdated slow built in serial port which
was fine for the A1000 back then when 9600 baud modems were still
rare, but not now.
