If you _know_ that for certain, then change them both to use hardware flow 
control.  Software flow control is _not_ recommended for high-speed modems.

Modem type doesn't matter - the characteristics of your PC do.  _Lower_ the 
Win95 buffer settings if you get CRC errors on receive.  Otherwise, leave 
them alone.  I've found the default settings in a Fossil are all that's 
required.
