That page describes how to make it work under Linux, as a com port.  It sho=
uld=20
be possible to make this work on NetBSD, but so far I've sucked.

There is a file included on that page that does something for the linux=20
drivers.  Here's the hexdump -C:

This seems to turn it into a com port, and it works just like a regular mod=
em=20
at that point, AT commands and all.

PCMCIAVERBOSE shows:

pcmcia1: CIS version PC Card Standard 7.0
pcmcia1: CIS info: Sierra Wireless, AC710/AC750, GPRS Network Adapter, R1
pcmcia1: Manufacturer code 0x192, product 0x710
pcmcia1: function 0: network adapter, ccr addr 700 mask 73
pcmcia1: function 0, config table entry 1: I/O card; irq mask fff8; iomask =
6,=20
iospace 0-3f; rdybsy_active io8 io16 irqlevel

Any pointers on what I should whack?

Thanks,
