You might check the init strings for both modems. You need to turn off error 
correction and data compression on both. Apcidoom v5.6 is good about auto-
detecting teh modems and writing the init for you if you're not to sure
about them. Another program is Bnudm126, it uses error correcton and data
compression and gives me fast games at a 28.8 connection. It also leaves
you connected so you can load other wads and keep playing.
