Not tried Kppd or any other GUI ppp app. More comfortable on CLI. However,
/dev/ttyS1, UART 16550A is set to a baud_base of 115200, the fastest
attainable speed between the modem and the serial port. On the other hand, I
used minicom to configure my 3Com US Robotics external modem to connect at
the highest attainable data rate (AT&N0) whilst at the same time enabling
auto data compression (AT&K1). /var/log/syslog has in it several lines
pertaining to the activity of pppd but cannot deduce the connection speed.
Thanks anyway.
