set uart instant <rate> This immediately changes the baudrate. This is useful when testing
baudrate settings, or switching baudrate “on the fly” remotely while
connected over TCP (Telnet). This setting does not affect configuration.
Returns the AOK response, and then this command will exit command
mode.
In firmware version 2.22 and later, we fixed a bug wherein the WiFly
module would not return an AOK over telnet. Now when this command is
issued, it returns an AOK over Telnet and does not exit command mode.
If used in local mode, the baud rate will change and the AOK will come
out the NEW baud rate. It is possible if the host switches to the new baud
rate right away it might catch see the AOK string (on the new baud rate).
Depending on the baudrate it will take at least 10* bitrate for first char to
come out
set uart raw <rate> sets a RAW UART value. Used to set non-standard rates. The lowest
possible baud rate is 2400.
Example : “set u r 7200” sets the baud rate to 7200 baud.
Using non standard raw baud rates (with hardware flow control) can be
more useful at speeds as the micro controller interfaced to the module may
be able to better match the uart speeds and get better results.
The following raw baud rates are supported:

set uart flow <0,1> sets the flow control mode. Default=0=Disabled, 1= hardware RTS/CTS.
NOTE: Once flow control is enabled, it is important to properly
drive the CTS pin (active LOW enabled) If CTS is HIGH, data will
NOT be sent out the UART, and further configuration in command mode
will be problematic as no response will be received.
