        I'll like to support this...  the only way I can connect at 14.4 now
is to turn OFF all compression & error correction.  Then it works, but I get
the line noise once in awhile and of course no compression. *shrug*
 
        When I connect at 14.4 with all the extras, I get either one of two
things:
 
        * NO connect message from my modem, pause for a second or two, then
          just TONS of garbage, then no carrier.  This happens almost every
          time I call in at 14.4 with extras.
 
        * I get the connect message, actually get the Gandalf prompt, but
          then it assumes I hit enter three times, kicks me off due to
          invalid responses, while the entire time sending me a nice string
          of beeps.  Joy.  This hasn't happened in awhile, but then I
          haven't tried connecting with extras in a while.
 
        The 9600 lines work fine with compression & error correction,
though.
