- I never tried running my 288 modem with an '020.
- I did use 38400 on my 68000 7Mhz A500 with 144 modem.

- There could be something to this, unless of course you get the gvppatch,
- or you are able to hook up some sort of enhanced serial port on your A1200.

- I run my Supra 288 V.34 at 115200 both on BBSs and the net.
- I get zero overruns.
- I have a GVP A1230+ with 50Mhz '030 '882 and 8 megs of fast.
- I also have some software running that will make a differance like:
-
- 8n1.device
- gvpatch
- exec patch
- move vbr
- setcpu (fastrom set, ie roms moved to 32bit ram)
- executive can make a differance as well but I do not use it.
