I tried setserial, with the result that I got- 'unable to set speed to
57600' or something like that. What followed may have been just a
coincidence, but my modem quit connecting at > 2400 bps. I did a
complete reset of modem default settings, and tried it under DOS as
well as w/ several systems, all w/ the result that 2400 bps worked,
but not higher. I tried different ports as well. I was going to return
my modem to the factory, but today (w/o doing anything to it) the
modem works at high speeds. Strange. Is it at all possible that
setserial could confuse a modem or scramble it's eproms?
