I would take a wild guess that it may have been used in a wildcat or pcboard bbs before to have been set in that way :) You'll need to play with the nonvolatile ram settings in the modem and get it to use the more standard "fixed com port speed" config and then std.115200 should be fine. Until you do this, I think the only speeds you'll ever see are 300/1200/2400/4800/9600/19200.
