ADDENDUM: Can't connect to my server at more than 9600 bps

We are now able to connect at 14400 bps. We have to issue a <cr> after the
connection to get to the login: prompt but that's a minor problem.

Our problem now is that PPP is not working anymore at that speed. It worked
fine at 9600.

It's still probably a MODEM related problem but we tried everything we could
possibly imagine (and our imagination is quite fertile!) and we just can't
fix it.

Also, when I connected at 9600, the only machine I could PING successfully
(and work with directly) was my PPP server, I could not ping any other
machine on the network. Why ? (I don't run DNS, my server is 142.1.2.3, most
of my other servers and clients are on network 142.1.x.y, my netmask is set
to 255.255.0.0 with a cisco router at 142.1.1.1 that is my gateway to
network 142.1 (configured with routed by 'netsetup').
