Hello,

I used to have this model and it worked perfectly for me under
FreeBSD.

This is what I used to do in order to set it correctly:

I would disable (both) COM ports in BIOS, then I would compile the
kernel with _just_ this option (for serial ports):

device         sio2    at isa? port IO_COM3 irq 5

Where sio2 == COM 3. Also I wouldn't include the first two COM
ports. And I think that in the documentation that came with the modem
there are instructions on how to set it to irq 5, do that before you
compile the kernel with the above instructions.

I hope you get it working 'cos its a good modem. 


Good luck,

--Alex
