Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

  • You configure a Windows Embedded Compact 7-based device to support Dial-Up Networking (DUN) profiles.

  • You add two external modems to the Windows Embedded Compact 7-based device.

  • You run an application that calls the RasDial function to connect the device to a dial-up network through the external modem.


In this scenario, you may receive the following error message when the RasDial function is called:

ERROR_PORT_NOT_AVAILABLE(633)

Note This problem typically occurs when you specify multiple external modems in the registry for a device.

Cause

This problem occurs because of a race condition in the Unimodem model that causes an incorrect port name to be used when the RasDial function is called.
