 FINALLY! a question I can answer :-)

 Do you mean 0x11 as in ASCII 11Hex = DC1 = X-on?

 You may find that not every other character is transmitted. Try 0x13 for some
 real fun. Then make sure X-on X-off flow control is disabled for every device
 (modems and serial.device) in the link and try again.
