Zmodem has a VERY tight window, designed for a hard wired (land line) connection where the maximum latency is typically 25ms to 50ms. That can be changed if you have protocol adjustment settings. Most programs don't. Because there is the latency of going from the WiFi device to your router, the router to your ISP, and the ISP to the destination (and likely back to a router and maybe another WiFi device), it can take a very long time for a round-trip packet acknowledgement to occur.
And Xmodem is more forgiving so it doesn't error out in the same time period.
Gotcha.
Which also probably explains why it works (mostly) fine for people calling in from
outside of my LAN. It only goes from my router to the WiModem 232 on DarkForce
and back, not looped around my LAN.
Thanks Jim.
