not usually when its online, since that is in the wee hours..  I can do 19200
but get too many errors and find that I actually get higher throughput at
9600 because of that.. 

I only used SunOS (4.1.1) for about a week or so, but I'm sure I managed
19200 on that fairly well.. as it stands, if I could run the modem at full
speed I would be chuffed to bits (v32bis), but if I could get 115k (eg from a
Magma card), I would celebrate by buying a v34 modem..
