I guess what I'm looking for is not necessarily an exact bits-per-second, but
just the difference between someone who's connecting over telnet with a
Lantronix at 57.6k or slower, versus someone using a plain terminal at normal
telnet speeds.

Is there an ANSI sequence I could send through Javascript that returns an
automatic response from the remote terminal, and I could time that?
