All things pertaining to wireless and RF links

I'm working with an RN42 module and writing a Windows 10 app to talk to it.

What's happening is that the serial packets that I'm sending through the module are being broken up on the computer side. This means that the RFCOMM libraries will send over the first half of a packet in a burst, and then the rest in a second burst.

If I jumper the pins around so that the microcontroller is controlling the RTS line to encompass the data being sent, will this allow the packet to arrive in a single "burst" of data?

I noticed that on the newer BM78, that this can be done by using the UART_RX_IND input but I'm unsure of how to force this behavior in the RN42.

Does anyone have any advice?
