Doug,
Just so happens that I too use TapCIS, but to get the FIFO buffers in the
serial comm chip to work you have to acitvate them. Here's the response that I
get from TAP with my log on to CIS………………..
[TAPCIS: Open COM2:]
[TAPCIS: Serial FIFO Buffer ON]
AT&F1&K4&Q9S95=44L1DT261-0040
CARRIER 14400
PROTOCOL: LAP-M
COMPRESSION: NONE
CONNECT 38400

To get the serial FIFO buffer turned on, you have to set the TAPCIS.CFG file
line "/FIFO=Y". Actually there is lots of stuff you should be setting in the
that file to use the higher speed modems.
Actually TAP uses the B+ protocol, and that's the one that will let you restart
downloads if you get interrupted. It's also one of the fastest on
CIS…….<grin>.
