Recently I bought Everex 2400 Baud MNP Level 5 Modem, and the manual said
that if the other line supports MNP Level 5 protocol and if I have compression
turned on, I can actually achieve higher transfer rates by increasing
the transfer speed between computer and modem to say 4800 baud.  

The two questions are:
How do I find out if the other line supports MNP Level 5 protocol and if
it does how do I utilize this "speed up"

thank you
