Sorry, but in the UK they're not supporting the 33.6k baud rate. The upgrade to 33.6 is in the form of a new firmware chip. USR have confirmed that they have NO plans to offer this chip in the UK - I tried! I suppose you could get the US version and hack the AT commands to work for our dial tones, but probably not worth the effort...
