I think the manual says something like "don't use -a unless you know
what you're doing and why you need this".

You don't know what you are doing -> switch off "-a" / set "autobauding no".

Explanation for the error message: 14400 is not a valid port speed on PC 
uarts.  

History: Autobauding is only needed for very old modems that require the 
same serial port speed as the line speed, and those usually only do 
1200/2400, maybe 9600, but no faster speeds.  With v32bis and faster 
modems, the whole concept doesn't make sense anyway, because of the 
capabilities for fallback/fallforward during an existing connection.
