That could be the point, but it's the system with several modems
connected through 2 external USB hubs. Nobody touches it. 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)?
