when I start cu (cu -l/dev/cuaa0 -c5551212) it = respondes no such device.
and stays in the shell. AS you say, i did mention = device errors, becuase up until I tried cu, there where no such error. = Even though cu reports that there is no device when I try it the modems = clear to send light comes on. But, the modem does seem to respond back = to the pc.
