I am having big troubles with serial device access. Especially
dial out. Is there anything I need to do to get my serial ports
to work properly in FreeBSD. I have tried various dev types in
ttys, and a few other things mentioned in the FAQ's. I am trying
to run USR V.34's. (if anyone has one of these and could share
switch settings and any init parameters after an AT&F1 I would
be most appreciative.)

Problems I have are SIO overflows, system hangs when opening
or closing the device with kermit, and just generally goofy
behavior when trying to use the modem. Dial in works fine with
tty0? or ttyd?, but cua0? generally works poorly if at all.

Please help!!!!
