[newbie] PCMCIA modem

2001-12-01 Thread Dan Jacobs

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.
TIA,
Drive safely,

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

[newbie] PCMCIA Modem Problem

2001-01-29 Thread rob

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

[newbie] PCMCIA Modem Problem

2000-07-16 Thread Gary

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

 Hi,
 
 Can any one (not) recommend a PCMCIA modem card to use with Mandrake (or

 Thanks,

RE: [newbie] pcmcia modem problem

2000-04-13 Thread Austwick, Mark

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 ?

Is that *actually* a PCMCIA modem, or is it simply an internal laptop

If it's the built-in, it's likely a Winmodem (they take up less space =)
) in which case, you might try and see if you can collect the drivers at
www.linmodems.org.

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