I just upgraded to comp of a friend of mine, and part of the temporary upgrade was an AMR modem to try to get away from his riptide (ECS K7S5A).
Now, here's the problem...
It connects at 40k or so, and works great for a few minutes, then disconnects. I need to know, or know where to find or figure out the init string to make the thing connect at 28.8kbps and only 28.8kbps, which solved all trouble before the modem switch.

You can set the floor of connect speed with &Un1 and the ceiling with &Nn2 where n1 and n2 are integer numbers which corresponds to connect speeds. You have to look up the integer numbers and the corresponding speeds since it seems to be different for various protocols (X2, K56flex, V.90, V.92). &Nn2 set the ceiling if &Un1 is set non-zero.

Every modem I've seen will always respond to this command:

AT +MS=V34,1,300,28800

Some modems change this command around a little so if the above does not work, using a terminal program (HyperTerminal in windows works) try this: AT+MS? This will make it list the correct syntax for the +MS command. It will also show an example.
