BTW, Michael, my PCI modem works fine with Miniterm/Arachne 1.64. This
modem is set on IOPORT D800, IRQ 10 by the BIOS, and all I have to do is
insert these numbers in PPP setup. I have PNP Operating system set to "No"
in the BIOS.

This e-mail indicates, that is possible to use PCI (=non ISA) internal modems
with Arachne, if they are not Winmodems. You have (probably ?) to disable
Plug'n'Play for requested IRQ in BIOS, and you have to setup Arachne to use
"non-standard serial device" and manualy enter parameters of your PCI modem
(in this case it is Irq 10, Base 0xd800, but it will be of course difefferent
for other modems). However, I haven't tested any PCI modem with DOS Arachne
myself.
