Pci Modem

Recommended Posts

How does one discover the filesystem identity which Versions 4.0, 3.9, etc. attach to an internal, PCI dial-up modem? Is it "/dev/ttyS4" or "/dev/ttyS14" or "tts/14" or what? I have a fully-functional hardware modem which works fine on Version 3.6 but which none of the later versions can identify for an effective "/dev/modem" link. "lspci" lists the modem and its interrupt request number (IRQ 10), but not its serial port identity, and "dmesg" doesn't seem to list the device at all.

Which linux distro are you using? What kernel version? It is very strange that older version would recognize the modem, but newer will not...ttyS is equivalent to COM port under windows, so I guess it would be possible to access the modem via ttyS, where you should specify port modem is using by default, usualy 3 or 4...Are you 100% sure it's hardware modem? Maybe you had previous version of kernel compiled with lucent drivers for DSP modems...
