Are we dropping any important information from responses?

[Peque]

We are doing:

response = response.decode('ascii').split('\n')[0]

In some cases that is not bad:

b'+PSWD:0000\r\nOK\r\n'
b'+PIN:"1234"\r\nOK\r\n'

But could we be dropping anything else apart from the useless OKs?

For a while, I thought that the problems I saw were just about the differences in the response. There is though additional risk in the time delay.

Originally, the 0.05s timeout meant that incomplete responses were received. bytes could be left in the buffer (I think) and subsequent requests gave garbage.

For a while I used a 0.5 second timeout but that was painful. With 0.25s and a slightly larger request size, I have had no trouble with that kind of thing. None of my modules have given trouble with any of the commands now.

Not that they never will I guess.
