AFAIK 64 is the global limit for all COM receives; XOFF is sent at 40 characters which is easily overrun, especially with a long turn-around time and receiving a packet. m - Original Message - From: Kurt McCullum To: Model 100 Discussion Sent: Monday, October 17, 2016 4:11 PM

Looks like John beat me to it ;-) Steve played with expanding the buffer a long time ago while we were playing with the M100-on-the-Internet but never got it working 100% reliably, so we ended up handling XON/XOFF in the bridge hard/software instead which could respond instantly. m -
