I have a PS/2 Model 65sx that is connected via serial port to a terminal
server.  The connection is 19.2kbps, and I'm running OS/2 2.0.

I have trouble downloading at any speed higher than 2400 bps.  When I
try to go faster, I get so many errors that the average CPS rate is
around 75, no matter what speed I use.

A friend has a very similar setup (Model 55sx, running OS/2 2.0), but he
has no problems maintaining 1500 cps downloads.

Now, uploads are no problem--they go at around 1400-1500 cps very
easily.

Is there something wrong with the 65sx in general, or is this a problem
that I need to have fixed (i.e. send my motherboard back to IBM)?

Any ideas?  Please email.  Thanks.

Daniel
