Re: [Re: [newbie] Configuring External Modem]
If your internal modem is a pci or an isa then you would simply remove the card from your computer, if it is part of the motherboard, then you will have to check your instruction book for the motherboard. If you are like me, you don't have any instruction, so you will just have to wing it, possibly you could find out more about your motherboard on the internet. Let me know how you come out.Carl From: "nobody noway" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Re: [newbie] Configuring External Modem] Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2001 22:16:29 -0600 Thanks for your response. I thought about disabeling the winmodem but I could not figure out how to do it using hardDrake. Any Ideas?

In LM 7.2 you pick the serial port ttys(0,1,2,3) where you plug in the external modem and then Linux should find it.

I also have a 3Com U.S. Robotics External 56K Voice Faxmodem Pro hooked up to serial port. hardDrake recognizes the winmodem but for obvious resons I can not use it. My question is how do I install the external 3Com modem.
