Did that work? I haven't seen the Belkin suggestion (and can't find it) but
it would be more helpful if companies who suspected problems with Kermit
software would contact us about it.
Anyway, sorry for misleading you. I didn't realize that all USB port access

ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/k95/newbugs.txt
has been corrected. As noted there, the fix must await the next K95 release.
I can't say when that will be. Meanwhile...
