[Inquiries concerning valuse for s112]

That I know of, this register is only really useful when you have problems
with your phone company or long distance carrier (such as Sprint).  The
most useful is s112=12, which disables micro packets.

Micro packets (3-4ms) appeared in 4.0 roms and, combined with changing the
short packets from 22ms to 11ms (also in 4.0 roms), are what really made
the interactive performance sing.  I can think of no good reason for
changing s112 to anything other than zero unless you are having problems
with the modems retraining or disconnecting.

Settings for s112 that I know of are:

	 0 Any (normal)
	 1 Short packets only (2 bits)
	 2 Long packets only (2 4 6 bits)
	 3 Long packets only (2 bits)
	12 Disable micro packets
