- Are you using the default serial device i.e. serial.device?
- If so, try using one of the PD ones such as v34serial.device or
- USRSerial.device available on aminet. Serial.device is somewhat
- dated and is prone to errors at high speed. I'm currently using
- USRSerial.device with my 14.4 modem and haven't experienced any probs.
