- I recently bought 14400 pbs modem/fax which has 16550 UART.
- It comes with QCOMM software (MSDOS) in which I can diable/enable 16550.
- How do I can I make use of 16550 in Linux ?
- First, how do I know whether Linux recognized 16550 ?
- The modem manual describes nothing about 16550.
-
- One more queston. When I use kermit, it connects at 9600bps O.K.
- When it transfers, it is not faster than 2400bps. Why is it so ?
-
- Thanks in advance.
