The internal modems that work well with FreeBSD are ISA modems with jumper
settings for the COM port and interrupt.  If yours is not one of these, you
may need to replace it.

If your modem has jumpers, be sure the IRQ (interrupt) is set at 5, and does
not conflict with anything else on interrupt 5. This is different from the
Microsoft default because in any UNIX system devices cannot share an
interrupt, while in Microsoft they can if they are not used at the same
time.

For COM 3 be sure sio2 is enabled in the kernel. It will dial out on
/dev/cuaa2.

To test it type:

cu -l /dev/cuaa2

It should echo "CONNECT"

Then if you want to dial 1234567 and you have tone dialing:

ATDT1234567

If this works, you are in business.
