Its likely that windows is actually reporting the speed to the UART chip on the modem and not the actual connect speed (i've it do this to me before) which would be 57600 for a 56k modem. Trying to force your modem to a higher speed is probably not a good idea. I see you are .fi so the US FCC limit to 53kbps shouldnt apply to you, and i dont know how valid my next statements will be, but analog lines are generally noisy, and your modem talks with the remote side to negotiate the fastest speed the can talk to eachother over the lines and still understand eachother. By forcing your modem to go faster, you need to get the remote side to go faster as well, and likely your line cant handle a faster speed without corruption to the bitstream, so in eaiter case you are likely to get bad data if you force the connection to go faster. I've seen lines so bad 56k modems connect a 26k, and the highest ive seen is 50k, and that was only once.
