First, the Diamond Max is known to be a POS generally.
Second, 115,200bps is impossible on a modem that's rated at 56000bps, thus, you are getting a reading of your port speed, not your modem speed.

What to do.
First, what driver version do you have for that modem? I'll find you a GOOD driver.
Second, once I know the driver version, I can get you some init strings to try and speed things up.
Third, read this, then this, and lastly, and most importantly, this.
Fourth, go to my modems page, and get iSpeed and install it.
Fifth, get back to me after you've done the above, and we'll "get you up to speed".
