I know that, sure, in fax communication the maximum speed is limited to
14.4k in the telephone line and (sometimes) to 19.2k in DTE-DCE
communication. But I am speaking about data connections. If I want my
modem to serve at 56k, obviously, I need higher rate connection between
the computer serial port and the modem, do I? But higher rate
communication cannot be maintained by xonxoff flow control. And my modem
is unable to receive faxes with rtscts. So I do not know how to switch to
higher rates in data connections, this is my problem.
