- Try setting your serial line speed to 38.4K if you have it set higher.
- This is Smith Micro's recommendation until they fix some
- uncharacterized bug in QLMC. The low message volume thing has no
- promised fix at the moment. The 57K no-workum bug supposedly is being
- fixed.
-
- The lack of support is really frustrating. After a four week wait the
- first time, I heard from them once and then nothing... If you see
- their BBS, the situation is not any better.
-
- See my follwing post about the Moan and Groan web page nomination for
- USR and the Vi Sportster.
