: card "SIERRA" "A555"
: config auto "sio" ?

: pccard1: CIS version PC Card Standard 7.0
: pccard1: CIS info: Sierra Wireless, AirCard 555, A555, Rev 1
: pccard1: Manufacturer code 0x192, product 0xa555

: pccard1: No config entry could be allocated
Looks like you have another serial port using 3f8-3ff (which is
generally COM1). I've had communications with insiders that say other
serial ports would also work... I've have no time to integrate
things, however.
