I've previously been using a USR 14.4 Sportster with no problems, full
14400 connects every time. However I recently bought a new 33.6 external
modem from Powermark (their own brand) I eventually got it to work using
turnpike using the generic GVC init string. It now works OK but the
fastest connect I ever get is 26000, usually more like 24400. This is
regardless of whether I phone the normal lines, or the 33.6 beta test
ones.

Also, if I set the connect speed to be 115 200, I get loads of overruns.
This shouldn't be the case using a 16550 UART should it?

Any help would be appreciated,
