The external modem knows nothing. It's just connected to whatever you
set the port up as. So, check your original system for serial ports.
Check the bios to find what it has setup for serial ports. Then, setup
the serial card to NOT use any of those ports or irqs or addresses.
Once you have it setup, then just connect the modem to the port. How
come you can't just connect the modem to a serial port already in your
system?
