Whenever I try to configure PPP for my card on FreeBSD, when I type the dialing commands (such as at, atdt, etc.), the output on the screen would either be jarbled or won't appear at all. > > Anyways... This is not the right place for this message, please resend this to the freebsd-questions and/or freebsd-net mailing list and they will be happy to help you. The charter for this mailing list is for non-technical newbie support, sorta like a support group, though most people here will be happy to help with "less technical" and basic newbie questions. >Here is my dmesg output: > >Copyright (c) 1992-2003 The FreeBSD Project. >Copyright (c) 1979, 1980, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 > The Regents of the University of California.

I also used Google to see if other people had problems with the same card, but I didn't find any solutions at all. What do I need to do in order to get my PCMCIA card working properly? I am relatively new to FreeBSD, so I don't really know where to go from here.
