I worked in UNIX async communications software for 6 years for a company whose product beat out UUCP as "most popular UNIX communications software" There are only 4 modems I know of that do this, and all but one of them is no longer manufactured (and two of them were from Radio Shack and could not handle binary transfers anyway). I think you have a configuration problem unrelated to the d3 setting, possibly hardware.
