This is also accessible from the Start menu in the MultiVOIP GSM software folder.

Set Baud Rate. The Connection option in the sidebar menu has a “Settings” item that includes the baud- rate setting for the COM port of the computer running the MultiVOIP GSM software.

First, it is important to note that the default COM port established by the MultiVOIP GSM program is COM1. Do not accept the default value until you have checked the COM port allocation on your PC. To do this, check for COM port assignments in the system resource manager of your Windows operating system. If COM1 is not available, you must change the COM port setting to a COM port that you have confirmed as being available on your PC.
