	i am new to using FreeBSD on a laptop, so add a grain of salt.
	it puzzles me that you are using "config 0x2f8".

	none of the sample modem configurations in "/etc/pccard.conf.sample"
	do this.  rather they use "config 0x23" or "config  0x23"
	or in once case "config  0x3".

	"configuration index from the range available in the card's CIS"
	[from the pccard.config man page].
	
	i dont know how you find the correct index number to use ;(
