- You are using nearly the same configuration I have (A590 w/2megs FASTram,
- Quantum 85ELS)...Your best bet is to set your serial port to 19.2Kbps and to
- bump up the task priority of your terminal program (try 1 to 15 in small
- increments). Also, don't use your floppy drives or multitasking programs
- if you can avoid it. Also, I have recently upgraded from kickstart 1.3 to 2.0
- and I have noticed that I now receive quite a bit fewer errors when downloading.

- I will e-mail you my COURIER HST modem settings if you would like. I recommend
- against using modem setting programs as you don't know what they're telling
- your modem to do. Of course, if you don't know much about high speed modems,
- then what else is there to do?
