I have found that with a 9600 baud modem, and connecting to my host with telnet, I need to slow down the zmodem program. I find that sz -w 2048 works fine with my modem. This forces it to wait every 2048 characters for an "ACK" from the other end, and apparently avoids overrunning the intermediate buffering capacity. I might also note that merit now supports PPP and SLIP connections, which are certainly more functional, if not more reliable, than a single serial connection. -- =Spencer W.
