A PR is not really the correct manner to get help with this. Try
freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org for questions like this that are skewed
towards notebook PCs.
However, IIRC, you can either use the modem or the NIC, but not
both. Here is what I would do. See the entry for your card in
/etc/defaults/pccard.conf,
# Xircom CreditCard Ethernet 10/100 + modem (Ethernet part) (CEM56)
card "Xircom" "CreditCard Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56"
config 0x27 "xe" ?
# config auto "sio" ?
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
Copy it to /etc/pccard.conf. Comment out the line for "sio" when you
want a NIC and "xe0" when you want a modem. After you edit the
/etc/pccard.conf file, restart the pccardd(8) daemon,
# kill -HUP `cat /var/run/pccardd.pid`
So it re-reads the configuration files. Then reset the PC Card,
# pccardc power <slot> 0
# pccardc power <slot> 1
You can also use pccardc(8) to setup the card manually and skip the
file editing.
