I'm not sure what all the codes mean, but in general Rockwell chipset==winmodem. (going from memory here) I think there are two types of PCI winmodems - those that run the DSP code in a vxd under windows, and those that upload a firmware image into memory on the modem itself. The second could easily be supported by a kernel-mode or user-mode firmware uploader *if* the chipset vendor and/or modem vendor would release protocol info and a firmware image. Likely the protocol info would be in the chipset's specification. And now I make a semi-educated guess: HSP==Host Signal Processor (classical winmodem) HCF==Host-Controlled Firmware (hardware modem that requires a firmware upload) Last I looked, I don't think either of these are defined or explained on Grommit's winmodem page. Could someone correct or verify what I just said? -- Ferret no baka
