Hi :), I'm a bit undecided about this, the best thing of all would be to make
the whole network backend aware of this option, even then, I wouldn't like to
store some settings in /etc/ppp/peers/* and other ones in /etc/ppp/options in
the debian case, I think that the best in the short term should be to hack
gst_network_enable_modem() function to specify the speed from network-admin as
well, as this would work for non-debian distros as well.
