Hi, Don. I thought I had heard somewhere that one needed to set the bn to
115200. The default is only 9600, you know. Even the braille lite 18 could
transfer at 48000 and I think the newer braille lite 40's could transfer at
115200.
Perhaps someone like Jonathan could tell us what the proper setting is.

Really! That's very interesting. I'll be interested to see how your file
transfers go, especially large files.
Glad you got it. I've not heard of upping the baud rate before as the
defaults seemed to work, but maybe that's something to think about.

Hi, Don. I put the baud rate up to 115200 and hit connect on the bn and it
worked.
Thanks.
