Anybody succesfully installed AVM FritzCard?

Hi!

Is there anybody, who successfully installed an AVM Fritzcard ISDN
adapter? The card is automatically detected on install as AVM A1
(although it is a AVM PCI). That's also what lspci shows: 

00:0b.0 Network controller: AVM Audiovisuelles MKTG & Computer System
GmbH A1 ISDN [Fritz] (rev 02)

In redhat-config-network it's shown as /dev/eth1, not ippp0. Trying to
active it I get: "Hisax Device eth1 not found"!

So I deleted the card and reconfigured it, now my
/etc/sysconfig/isdncard looks like this:

RESOURCES='protocol=2 type=27 id=HiSax'
NAME='AVM PCI (Fritz!PCI)'
MODULE=hisax
VENDOR_ID=1244
FIRMWARE=

Now I get: "Dialing of ippp0 triggered", although the link is up, as
/var/log/messages shows:

Routing is ok, too:

Both redhat-config-network and redhat-control-network don't realize the
link, so I cannot deactivate it. /sbin/ifdown ippp0 works:

Jan 13 17:41:04 hal9000 kernel: isdn_net: local hangup ippp0

                                     ^^^^^^^^^^ ???

But after that I loose my network, for there was a new default route
added and deleted again, so there is no default route anymore.

Ziel         Router       Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.1.0  *            255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
169.254.0.0  *            255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 usb0
127.0.0.0    *            255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo

So I have to /etc/init.d/network restart, to get my default route back
again.

In the testing-times I had some of the problems, too, but I was able to
solve them. See
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2003-September/msg01640.html

So is there anybody who has no problems with this card?
