I'm trying to hookup 2 BocaModem 14.4 modems using Procomm for Windows.
Are there any restrictions regarding setting up the serial port speeds
in Windows 3.1?  I'd like to use the v42bis compression/correction
protocol and the modem recommends using 57,600bps for the serial port baud
rate.  Will this work properly or is it too fast for Windows 3.1 on a 386??

Also, I setup the com1 port using the control panel to 57600 by typing
this value in (it is not available from the speed selection list).  Is
it ok to do this?
