Theoretically, remote devices are supported at the same speeds as devices connected
directly. However, most full duplex asynchronous modems support only a limited set of
speeds. Common modem speeds are 300, 1200, and 2400 bps. Note that the device, the
modems, and the data communications configuration must be set to the same
transmission speed for the connection to work.
