Ummmm,
V.22bis is 2400bps. But it's 600 baud, using QAM encoding for 4
bits/baud.
V.32 is 9600bps. Its 2400 baud, and also uses QAM for the 4
bits/baud.
The faster ones don't go above 2400 baud, just uses better
techniques to get more bits/baud.
I hope it's clear that a baud is a change in the signal?
For the RS-232 link back to your computer bps==baud always, up
to the 115200 limit of RS-232C. (But the bps of this serial link
should be higher than the bps of the modem (analogue) link. My
modem usually says:
CONNECT 115200
CARRIER 33600
etc)
