Hi Gurus
Can I have a NIC interface for a modem? A standard modem, when installed,
should appear as a NIC card to the OS stack.

That’s pretty much what NDISWAN does in regard to modems.
NDISWAN makes modems appear as Ethernet adapters for NDIS
protocol drivers, such as tcpip.sys. I suppose you can write
a custom protocol driver, which binds to NDISWAN to send/receive
packets over your modem as it were a NIC - if that’s what your
application needs. The connection setup will still have to be handled
by RAS, though.
If you’re looking for something more drastic you might attempt to write
a CoNDIS miniport, which talks directly to serial.sys, but I wouldn’t
go there…
