It is an internal USR Sportster Voice 33.6 Voice PnP I think part of the problem was that the PnP features were turned on so It wasn't really at any irq (this was the problem with my SMC EtherEZ, I have to go to it'd setup program and turn off PnP). Now when I enter term mode I can type a command such as ATDT 5 and the modem will respond, but whatever I type never appears on the screen, the modem's response never appears either. I can tell it's listening because if I type ATDT number the modem dials the number. Basically the problem is that nothing appears on the term screen.
