Since the "modem" is a PCI card, plugging it into the computer and connecting to it over the PCI bus is required. Talking to the device through the serial driver is correct. First it's necessary to know whether this card requires a firmware download. I would guess probably not, but I can't find any definitive information on it to be sure. Second it's necessary to know what kind of connection the ISP expects it to make, in order to configure it. Very likely either mpd or ppp will be able to work with it. The appropriate serial device may be the one at the start of the line preceding the pciconf output we were shown. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
