In the meantime, I have here several USB modems and a USB hub. Has anyone ever plugged more than, say, 4 USB modems to a USB hub and that to a FreeBSD box and made it work? Power to the modems is supplied by the USB hub, but, the USB bus bandwidth (I think in the vicinity of 2 MBps) can handle 4 modems? BTW, how's FreeBSD support for USB modems? Is it stable? (I'm running/tracking -STABLE) Best regards, Jon. _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
