- I have my 3b1 configured to answer on the serial port
- with a 486 clone running OS/2 on the other end.
- Problems:
- 1) I'm not getting 9600 baud over this connection, the line
- appears to very slow with a lot of lag. But file transfers do work.
-
- 2) Shutting off my 486 crashes the 3b1, although I can disconnect
- the serial cable and then shutdown with no effect (on the 3b1).
-
- Any ideas what my problems might be? Maybe this isn't new but
- the FAQ doesn't address these problems.
-
- Thanks in advance,
-
