Re: Intel 537EP - driver loads but cannot use modem

Chris,

See http://www.intel.com/design/modems/products/537ep.htm for the
specifications of your Intel's JA82537EP chip. Again it claims PCI 2.3
compliant.

I just took a look at the actual board.  There are only 2 chips:

Si3018-KS  (16-pin, http://www.datasheetsite.com/datasheet/SI3018-KS)
0505CGCAAQ

JA82537EP (64-pin)
0529DGEA30
INTEL '02

I guess the Si3018 and Si3052 chips are used in pairs in this application -- http://www.silabs.com/Marcom%20Documents/Resources/Si3052_PB.pdf.  The Intel JA82537EP chip must contain all of the Si3052 functionality...?  The Si3018 looks to just be the interface to the physical phone line while the Si3052 interfaces to the PCI bus.

Cheers,
-Chris
