Do you have your terminal set to 2400?  A Smartmodem 2400 sets the 
maximum speed at which it will connect based on the speed at the you 
are issuing "AT" commands.  

Is the "HS" light on when you issue commands?  I mean, is it on, and 
then goes off when you get the CONNECT 1200?  If so, this indicates 
that the modem on the other end really only supports 1200.  But if 
the HS light is NEVER on, this means you aren't issuing commands to 
the modem at 2400, so it will not connect at 2400.
