Removing 128k bandwidth limit

We have a 3600 router connecting to another cisco 3600 router at remote office. we currently have a 128k link. we upgraded to 384, but when upgrade was complete, link failed. downgraded back to 128, and all was fine. saw in config where limit is set to 128. how do i fix this so that in the future when we upgrade to a T or larger we don't have to make any config changes?

Thanks.

What do you mean by "saw in config where limit is set to 128"? Do you mean that you line was configured for rate limiting, or was it just a bandwidth 128 command?

If it was just bandwidth 128, then that is nothing to worry about because it does not actually set the real bandwidth - it just sets the value used for load calculations and routing protocol metrics etc. You can set it to whatever value you like, and it will not affect the actual bandwidth of the line.
