If the Netcomm is a halfway decent modem then crack open your case and
change the jumper settings so it doesn't do plug and play - assign an
address and IRQ manually. Before you do it have a look in windows at
what IRQ is handy - 5, 7 and 9 might all be good choices. In a pinch
you can use 3 if you disable the on board com2 (if you aren't using
it!)
Once this is done setserial may not be necessary - Linux should pick
it up by itself (I think :-)
Of course if the netcomm only groks plug and play, this will not work
:-(
