I am guessing that your router or ISP is very slow and causing timeout errors with the file transfer at lower baud rates. You might want to see what your ping times are to the WiModem. You should be seeing <32ms locally when pinging from a PC to the WiModem.
I transfer files between C64's as well as between my PC laptop and C64 and Amiga. I don't see any failures like you describe, and I have not had any reports of failures like this with the WiModem.
If file transfers work through the built-in terminal in Color64 then I would say the WiModem is working fine, and the issue is probably speed (overhead) related. There is a delay between the WiModem your router and your ISP (and back) that did not exist with phone lines. So, several protocols (Zmodem mainly) have issues unless you adjust the timing window. I use CCGMS to transfer (Punter) between my C64's. I can transfer at 300 baud to 9600 with no issues. I am using the latest version that has 80 column support and fixed Punter protocol and X-modem 1K. You might want to try that version.
