Hello, I have one of these cards. It won't work unless you use the 3Com drivers on Windows, and even then it doesn't work right. If you use a standard US Robotics external modem, preferably a Sportster, or even possibly a Zoom PCMCIA modem, they should work.

I have an old laptop on whith I want to use ppp to connect to Internet, using a PCMCIA modem 3Com 3CXM756 "Global GSM & Cellular Modem PC Card" First, I _think_ it shows up as /dev/cua03. In dmsg it pops up as device pccom3, and when trying with tip it appears that while the card is in it fails as described below, while the card is out it fails with "device not configured". Nevertheless. ppp, minicom and tip all try to send AT commands but get no responses, as it appears. I do not see any logs, almost. ppp says it does ATZ^M and waits for OK which does not happen. minicom and tip try to dial and say it fails. Have you got any tip on how to troubleshoot this card, or does anyone know this card is a dead end and can name a proper serial line, USB or PCMCIA modem that is known to work? -- / Raimo Niskanen, Erlang/OTP, Ericsson AB
