So i did MAKEDEV cuaa0, MAKEDEV cuaa1. the makedev returned no errors I even made cuaa3 and cuaa4 to see if they would error no such luck. so apparently the modem is not responding back. so i don't know where to go from here. the modem is a us robotics 33.6 external, i have tried various setting on the dip switch but np luck. any hints from anyone. -----Original Message----- From: Bernd Walter To: Person, Roderick Cc: ''freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG' ' Sent: 2/18/01 2:16 PM Subject: Re: this isn't fun any more....
