Hal:

I use a Cirrus MD120 ISA modem with K56flex(X2) technology.
I haven't flashed it to V90 because I can not find the program to do 
it.

I had a lot of problems using it in DOS and LINUX at high baud rates
until I added the following configuration string:

AT+MS=V34B,0,28800,33600,28800,33600

Now it connects instantly at 33600. 
If it can not connect at least to 28800, it just exits.
