Splendid! It puts itself at ttyS4 to leave the first 4 serial ports free
for the mobo to use, which is not entirely stupid.

ROTFL! There's nothing like a bit of basic *ix to get the better of dumb
user interfaces.

Cool. That would definitely be first choice of modem. Now for a reliable
supply of them...

Entirely an ipcop problem. To test the modem, sticking it into a
desktop for starters would prob be the quickest.

Thanks for posting the details!
