Okay:
I downloaded the carl9170 and installed it following your directions. It is still giving some intermittant trouble but seems to work much longer. It always seems to work long after I reset the computer, so I'm not sure if the firmware made it operate a bit longer or or not. It's hard to tell how much time I'll get out of it before it malfunctions, but I gues the point is, it still malfunctions eventually. As per your instructions, here is the output to the codes: (when it is working)

I will wait until it stops working to post the rest of the code response you gave me.
Which is, (for anyone else who is reading this
Code:
