I use amitcp because I am (other than this speed problem) happy with it.
I have everything set up as I want it. (but I have tried Miami)

fair enough.
 
:  How do you know Miami is really working at 115200 baud?  You do know

because it works. I set the serial speed to 115200, and it connects, and
runs fine. (which doesn't happen with amitcp - therefore I assume that 
it must be due to the device driver, as others with same sort of setup
appear to have no problems).

oops - maybe I should have mentioned the spec: A4000/030 with 882, 
enough memory (18meg), and a MULTIFACE III serial card.

(which will run at 115200 with no problems)
