Once I plugged in all the correct information, it works just fine, looking like a 16550A to the OS. It was quite a bit more expensive than the winmodems that I was looking at it. 3com/USRobotics. I had to remember (actually looked up) how to read the PCI bios entries to find out how to configure the serial port. No, I didn't use plug and play, it didn't make sense to. Eventually, I'll figure out hot to get it to do fax as well as login :-) when it becomes important... Brian Brian D.
