Failing that, check the usbdevs(8) man page. The serious catch about USB modems is that they have to support the USB CDC spec. Not all of them do. If it does, the serial device will be umodem0 (1, 2, 3, ...), and you use it just like a tty line tied to an external modem. <mike -- Mike Meyer http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Unix/FreeBSD consultant, email for rates.
