Problem is, the modems we have will lock at the last baud rate they were
connected at (e.g. 14.4, or 2400, etc.) until they get an "AT" to wake
them up. Needless to say, this causes problems. :)

Please don't tell us to buy new modems. We have lots of these AT&T
dataports and aside from the speed locking problem, they work fine. All
we need is a way for the portmaster to at least send an "AT" to reset the
line speed after a modem hangs up.
