modem0.device may have yet another problem. Using Whap! V1.9C (the CIS
automated telecomm program) I cannot upload files without incurring
hundreds of read errors. Downloading is no problem. I am using the
current release of modem0.device, but the problem seems to be apparent
on earlier version of the driver. Of course, I don't know if it is the
driver - just guessing at this point.
