From the FAQ about Ascends (available by sending an email with the
subject 'Send ascend' to support@demon.net:

Under USR modems:

Try adding any of the following to your modem initialization
(presented in an arbitrary order - various users have found that
one or another works best for them) 

               S54=96
               S54=128
               S54=160 

Some more recent Sportsters don't have an S54 register. If
you have one of these (you get an error when you add one of the
above S54=xxx to your initialization string), try adding this
instead: 

               S32=18S33=32
