  If the interface is asynchronous, the device will adapt to well-known
  asynchronous baud-rates.  If the interface is SYNCHRONOUS, your hardware
  will be quite special, and it will receive the serial clock from the
  modem  ->  DTE (computer) does not define the speed at all.

  You are not giving details with the modem, and what you have tried
  previously -- e.g. using it with 19200 baud speed, and observing it
  to react on async serial port.

  A discussion at this forum, and getting maintainers (Ted Ts'o) 
  attention.
