I've got a laptop with 2 USB ports and am installing a USB-to-mobile phone cable, along with the SoftGSM package. This works fine, detecting the USB cable as a modem and allowing the laptop to dial out over the mobile phone.
The problem is, if I connect the cable to the other USB port, Windows XP detects a new modem and installs it. This stops the s/w working and I have to plug the cable back in the original port, delete the 2nd modem & reinstall the s/w.
Question: Is there any way to stop XP detecting a re-plugged device as a new one?
I've tried all sorts of things, but no luck so far.
Thanks One by one, the penguins steal my sanity. X-)
