Even regular USR Sportsters don't exhibit *this* particular problem, with the same computers, just the Sportster Vi. It works at 38400 - if the DTE was changing to DCE that wouldn't work. It just doesn't work at 57600 or 115200 (in addition to problems with error correction negotiation, v.34 negotiation, recognizing people's voices as faxtones, and general flakiness).
