None whatsoever. IMHO it may make sense to try a multiple of iso frame
size, and something off.
FWIW I've taken a look at the code from eagle-usb.org, and they are
using 16 iso frames per urb in iso mode and 64 atm cells per urb in bulk
mode.
BTW are you basing your code on theirs?

Then I would seriously consider trying to replace cable / firmware /
modem. There are no workarounds for -EILSEQ in eagle-usb.org code, nor
there's any reference to the kind of errors you see in their forum or
docs, which makes me suspect a hardware problem.

OK.
