I haven't really been following this though. Internal modem I _assume_. What kind of Serial IO board do have? What ports are enabled/disabled on it? (Are you PHYSICALLY sure) To be honest it sounds to me like com1 is disabled and com2 is not disabled on your io board! But your modem is set for com2. thus a conflict! My suggestion is to make sure com1 on the IO board is _enabled_ and com2 is _disabled_. Then set your modem for com2. Access it via /dev/cuaa1. Not to start a war, But It's been my experiance that modems don't like odd port numbers! Technically I don't see how that could be, But Many times have I moved a modem from com1/com3 to com2/com4 on systems that act weird only to find that the problem dissapears! Of course this is Dos/Winbloze experiance! Does your modem have switches assessable externally? I have seen them get bumped while pluggin in the PH line! I have made it a pratice in my business to put tape over these access holes to prevent customers from blindly sticking thier PH line in them and trashing the switch settings. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Improve America's Knowledge...
