I don't know. I beleive its the way that the kernel works. Why
they don't just kill all the /dev/cua* devices is beyond me.

No.. you want your modem to be running at 115200 but Linux doesn't
do this directly. To get 115200 to the serial port, set ppp in
the /etc/ppp/options file to be at 38400. Then, in the
/etc/rc.d/rc.serial file, put in the following command:
/bin/setserial /dev/ttyS1 spd_vhi
/bin/setserial -bg /dev/ttyS1 > /tmp/speed-ttyS1
What these two lines will do is:
1) turn on the kernel's serial port multiplier
to give you 115200 at the serial port. Weird
but true.
2) Create the file /tmp/speed-ttyS1. In it,
it will tell you the configuration of your COM2
port and how it is configured. If the file
does NOT exist upon a reboot, that means that
the rc.serial file is NOT being executed.
If it isn't being executed, make sure the rc.serial
file is executable and is being run from the rc.sysinit
script file (redhat).

So.. regardless of your MTU of 1006 issue, those problematic WWW sites
now work because of the cua1 to ttyS1 thing?
