Hi,

a few users have reported this issue as well, and for some unknown 
reason, it seems that gmail.com triggers the bug. It is quite possible a 
modulation bug and since the next release of the driver will likely have 
a modulation code update, it is possible that the next version of the 
driver will fix this issue.

In the meantime, please try with each of the following init. strings, is 
is possible that one of them will solve the problem:

---
