After device reattaches, it works fine for several hours if not days (no XactErrs then). Before I started to use those hubs I worked with 3 other from different vendor and there have been similar symptoms. I would rather bet there is something wrong with Option modems in general, that makes them irresponsible to the OS under some circumstances. The question is: can this situation be handled without disconnecting the device (ie. by increasing number of retries)?
