i don't know if this will help or the question is deeper then i am
reading but when i first got my tb+ a few months ago ... i figured
the best way to go was to lock the tty port at 9600 (my current
serial cards barfs at 19200) by setting S66=1 and let the modem
autobaud.  this worked quite well at FAST speed but died when doing
data transfer at 2400/1200/300 baud!  what i did was to always have
S66=0 and let the local system talk to tb+ at the appropriate speed
(ie: when the modem was connected at 1200 baud, the machine talked to
the modem at 1200 baud).  i have had absolutely no problems since then.
