(Which should really have been asked in d.i.s.a - hence the addition of 
d.i.s.a to the newsgroups field). 

Apologies if anyone gets this twice as a result, I don't know how this should 
be done properly.

Anyway, Chris suggested:-
: 
:  From one Surf Squirrel owner to another, here's what to do -
: 
: edit AmiTCP:bin/startnet and find the line that says :
:   echo "dialer.device 0 57600 0.0.0.0 7WIRE" >ENV:Sana2/ppp0.config
:          And change this ^^^^^ to 115200
: 
: next edit ENVARC:dialer0.config and change the DEVICE line to read
:      DEVICE squirrelserial.device
: and the BAUD line to read
:      BAUD 115200
: you can comment out the old ones by putting a # at the start of the line
: if you want.
: 

Unfortunately, after doing this, when I tried connecting, the carrier was 
dropped every time as soon as I got through. 
Just after the finch220 etc stuff I got a line saying
NO CARRIER
and after a while a requester saying 
dialer0.device offline 
or some such.

On my second try I started Snoopdos beforehand, but the output was not very
informative, as you can see.

I'm using the AmiTCP_DIS96 distribution with only one change, AFAIR. I've 
replaced ppp.device v1.30demo with ppp.device v1.45demo.

The assistance of those more knowledgeable than I in these matters would be 
greatly (and gratefully) appreciated.
