Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, Just got my hands on a Ricochet wireless box that claims to look like a USB modem. I'm running 4.1.1-S, and the umodem driver appears to recognize it: umodem0: , rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2, iclass 2/2 Trouble is, I don't know what entry in /dev to use to access the modem. Does anyone know the magic mknod parameters I should use to create the proper device? I haven't had any luck with searching the list archives or the web for this information, or for general documentation on the driver. Which means that it's all probably conveniently located in an obvious place right under my nose... If all else fails the modem can also plug into the serial port, but at the cost of a few Kbps of throughput.
