Okay.  I have the datasheet (although 22 pages is a bit large for a "sheet") 
and I've read it.  The way I read it, 115200 Kbps with a 1.8432 MHz crystal 
calls for a divisor of one, which is acceptable up to crystal frequencies up 
to 4 MHz (section 8.3, paragraph 1, sentence 2).

Care to provide any hints?  Like page and paragraph numbers?
