Javier:
Are you are certain that it is not a winmodem? Although not all PCI
modems are winmodems, most are.
USR makes both kinds. The best place to settle the question is
www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html. It contains a very long list of
modems (sorted by manufacturer), and tells you if it is a real modem
(good news - although you've still got a problem, it's probably
solvable, a winmodem (bad news- probably won't work), or a linmodem --
that's a winmodem for which a Linux driver has been written. The site
also has a lot of links to other sites dedicated to modems. If you do
have a real modem, then the problem may be with
Plug-and-(sometimes)Play. I had this problem with my Zoom modem, and I
got around it be changing the jumpers on the card from pnp to com
whatever. If you do decide to go to the above site, it would be a good
idea to know the FCC ID number for your modem, as that is the primary
means of identification. The FCC ID is usually written on a white paper
tag on the card, which means that you have to look inside the box, and
that's something that may be inconvenient while you're on line.
Hope this helps,
