It has a 16550 UART connected to an Intel 14.4 modem. I get silo overflows at 19.2 38.4 and 57.6. I haven't tried 14.400 yet. I had assumed that it was a problem with the driver, but after reading these postings, I guess that others aren't experiencing the same problems. Can anybody point me in the right direction as far as how I can troubleshoot this. The overflows happen when I'm ftp'ing as I guess that's the most intense trafic I generate. It's qute a problem as it always ends up with the machine crashing and rebooting itself. Any help is appreciated. Willie
