John,

last week, I bought the TH-D7E(G) with the new firmware (v. 2).
I succeeded to configure it with mkiss and kissattach (no success with kissattach alone), RX and TX functional on 9k6.
Small problem - it just receives two frames at once, the third one is rejected.
I have still to play a bit with setup of USB-RS232 converter, which I believe, has the problem.
Everything on Mandrake 8.2, kernel 2.4.18, newest libs/tools/apps.

73,
Milan OK1XH
