Tried "Auto-configure" let it choose. It chose irq 10 which didn't work as before. "PnP" didn't make any difference. But I noticed onboard serial port B was disabled. Changed to "auto". Changed irq to 3 so ep0 would work. Then changed serial port to COM1 /dev/cuaa0 and plugged modem into other port. Now both work! Thank you so much...
