[newbie] PCMCIA modem
Does anybody on the list use a laptop with a PCMCIA modem? Which one do you have? How much did it cost? Have you had any problems with it? I have a Dell laptop with an unsupported software modem, and I'm gonna ask for a PCMCIA modem for the holidays.

I've got a 56k V90/voice/fax/data Modem card in my Sony Vaio which worked "out of the box" it is an unknown brand - Zonet - but it is 100% hardware, it cost me about £39 in the U.K - have a look at http://www.zonet.com.tw On Monday 05 March 2001 21:56, you wrote: Hi -- I need to buy a modem for my laptop (Toshiba 1625) running Linux 7.0.

[newbie] PCMCIA Modem Problem
Dear All: I have a PCMCIA modem on my laptop. When I boot up LM7.2 and go to dial up, I get a message saying the modem is busy. If I pop out the card (which is followed by a beep) and then pop it in again (which is followed by two beeps), it works fine. Any ideas how I can fix this? Many thanks, rob __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

[newbie] PCMCIA Modem Problem
I have just installed Helium on my lapton which has a PCMCIA modem card (a 3Com 3CXDM56B Modem). When I went to set this up in DrakConf under HardWare configurations, it froze at detecting modems. The install did not recognize this card at all. How do I get this card recognized as a modem? Do I need a PCMCIA controller of some sort, or do I have to rebuild the kernel? Thanks for your help. Regards, Gary

RE: [newbie] pcmcia modem problem
It is definatly a pcmcia modem. I have manged to get KPPP to see something but it is not my modem as when I try and connect it sits there trying to initialise the modem. In /etc/pcmcia I tried to serial start Modem and it comes back saying /dev/modem doesn't exist and removes the link. Any suggestions ? -Original Message- From: Stephen F.

It's a 3ccm156b in a Dell lattitude cpi. Is that *actually* a PCMCIA modem, or is it simply an internal laptop modem?

Keep your expectations low, though, that way you won't be disappointed. -Stephen-
