How's that? Does the external modem wait until it's received
an entire packet before it starts forwarding that packet?
Does each byte cost 4 x 100mics locally - once to go out COM2,
then once to go out of the external modem, then the reverse?
And how big are those packets in this (gaming) case?

The 10K is because your COM2 is limited to 115K, not 128K, and
it also has to send extra synchronizing bits. Newer COM ports can
run faster if they have the right software.
