[Soekris] PCI Modem for Console Access on net 4801

[Mike Tancsa]

We use the 3com 3CP5609 modems.  They work well, but it wont fit into 
a standard 4801 case unfortunately.

puc0 at pci0:8:0:  class=0x070002 card=0x00d312b9 chip=0x100812b9 
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
     vendor   = '3COM Corp, Modem Division (Formerly US Robotics)'
     device   = 'TL16CFM700PGE / 980C / 42A30KW PCI Serial Controller 
(for modem)d'
     class    = simple comms
     subclass = UART

This is on FreeBSD 6.2.
