25.1 NS16550
If you are running FrontDoor under a multi-tasker or in a LAN
environment, I suggest you replace your 8250 or 16450 UART chip
with a NS16550AN or NS16550AFN. These are available from several
electronics outfits for somewhere between USD 17 and USD 23.
The 16550 family of UARTs have internal buffering (FIFO) and will
improve performance in multi-tasking and LAN environments. Both
BNU and X00 has direct support for the 16550 family and can be
used without modifying your command-line parameters when loading
them.
