I am using a Toshiba Portege 7000CT. It has an internal XIRCOM pccard which also has built-in modem. The problem is that I just do not know how to setup it up to connect to the internet. When using KPPP the only serial ports that show are /dev/cuaa0, /dev/cuaa1, /dev/cuaa2 and /dev/cuaa3. When I used this card on KPPP under Linux, it used to be on /dev/ttyS3. How do I add this card to KPPP under FreeBSD so that I can connect to the net using the dial-up modem? Looking at the FreeSD boot messages, I found the flollowing information on the card:

Xe0: Xircom CEM56, bonding version 0x55, 100Mbps capable, with modem

Xe0: DingoID=0x444b
RevisionID: 0
VendorID: 0

0x2e8-0x2ef iomem, 0xd1000-0xd1fff, irq 11, slot 0 on pccard0

Ethernet address: 00:10:04:f1:60:57

I hope this information helps.
