According to Motorola with the strings you have me I can only connect at   
56K!
I tried it and sure enough no go.  You have to use 128K AIMux mode.

Here is the string I sent the modem:
AT&F&C1&D2\Q3%A2=3&M at B0=2%A4=1

In Win 95 in the Extra Settings Entry you have to enter this:
%A2=3 at B0=2%A4=0

This did it.  I'm now getting both B Channels bonded to get 128K and Dial   
into Linux with no problems.  I did have to change from UUGETTY to MGETTY   
though.  I also use setserial with the set_vhi command.

I hope this info will help someone else out there.
Jim

SOrry about that. It doesn't matter which way you're goin, except for the
dial string. The important part is %A2=95. In/out, you still can only
connect at 112K.
