How can I tell what speed I have negotiated with the modem on connection?
OT/PPP always reports a connect speed of 57600 (impossible with my 33.6
teleport platinum) which is the maximum possible with the serial port on my
5200.

I know at times I am connected at a much lower speed and would like to
disconnect and dial again, but there doesn't seem to be any way to confirm
what's going on.

If anyone knows of any utilities to monitor connect speed I'd be grateful.

regards
Rog
