- When I was using the autobaud setting (s51=255||254||253), I did have
- trouble with 38,400. I didn't investigate because I wanted to 57,600. I
- now lock DTE at 57,600, and I have not had any problems. (I use uAccess
- and a DigiCHANNEL Nu/4i on a Macintosh Quadra 700.) (I assume you have
- verified that your machine's hardware can support a clean and sustained
- 38400 since many machines stop at 19200.)
