I have my system configured to record a log of my modem conections.

I use a USR Courier flashed to the new 33.6k speed, and (sometimes
:-)) connect to the 0845 3535666 beta number. My maximum speed, set in
the DUN/Demon/Modem section, is 115200.

Having just connected, I thought I would check the log. Doing so, I
found, repeated many times the following - this is just a very small
part of the total log:

The part I don't understand is the report of the speed 57600 (I know
it's only connecting at 28800 - negotiated down on this occasion).

I presume my max speed setting is being over ridden and brought down
to 57600 by the modem type refered to in the MDMUSRCR.INF file.

I believe this modem type is correct - auto found by Win95 as "Courier
Dual Standard V.34 Ready Fax", the .INF file was downloaded 10 days or
so ago from USR, the modem reports "76AE" when queried with ati1 etc.
etc.

Anyone know why the log should report a max speed setting of 57,600 as
opposed to 115,200?
