In my case it is definitely GenesisRA failing to show it. Genesis MUI
shows line connect speed, either 33600 for one modem and 44000 or 45333
for the other.

With GenesisRA, nothing is shown.

While we're on this, why does my 56k modem sometimes show 44000 and
sometimes 45333? Is this just what they negotiate depending on
conditions, or can I have soem control over it?

Right--it is simply confirming what you have set in the modem setup in
Genesis prefs.

More than just many--I think it's approximately all modems.
