In the IOEthernetController subclass you need to do the following:

Thanks, but this is a serial-type driver (not ethernet.)
To answer my own question, I found this is set in the modem script
using the CommunicatingAt command! Adding this to the modem script does
not appear to add any calls to the driver, so I think it's just
informational (does not actually ask the driver for a connect speed.) I
have no idea yet how to get the driver to be able to say what the
actual line speed is.
I will guess that the driver doesn't actually know, and that this
information comes from the modem itself when in verbose mode (SPEED xxxx
or some such pronouncement). I think the modem script engine looks for
this reply from the modem. If someone knows better, speak up!

Justin
