Have you tried setting Kppp for cua1 ???. Do you have com2
enabled in your bios? If so you need to disable it....so your modem
can use it...otherwise your modem is being bumped by the bios to a
different comport...and since your modem isnt set for it...it cant be
found or initialized. Also...try the cua ports for selecting your
modem once you have verified your bios settings. Also using setserial
verify port settings using the cua ports.
Hope this helps.
