Now, its taken awhile, but we're starting to get some place. If you'd
mentioned that it was a 700 MHz machine in the first place, it might
have helped. So, what kind of 700 machine is it? What do your config
files look like? How busy is the machine when it gets these errors? What
else can you tell us about the system? Because if this modem is supposed
to just look like any other serial port to the system, then this would
almost certainly be a global problem with all 56k modems if it was the
serial driver, but since its obviously not, lets see what makes you
different, shall we? If nothing makes you different, and if it does turn
out to be a problem between sio and these modems, you'll need to file a
pr so it can get fixed. To be honest though, I still suspect something
in the config. It does appear to be a hardware modem from looking at
Zoom's product description, so at least we aren't talking about a
winmodem.
