I also have a Xircom Realport Ethernet 10/100+modem 56 REM56G-100, adn although I've managed to work with the modem (I haven't tried eth yet), I can't put the ISDN connection kit working with serial_cs module. Has anyone made a sucessful connection with it?
By the way, although my card is a Xircom Realport REM56G-100 it is detected as a Xircom CEM56!!! Any hints? Regards, Ricardo Diz ----- Original Message ----- From: Jørn Helge B.
