I am using .Net Compact Framework on a Windows Mobile 6 environment and I need to get a list of modems and the serial port that they're attached to. In the full .Net Framework it can be easily done using System.Management.ManagementObject class; but, unfortunately this is not available in .NET Compact Framework and I haven't found any other way to do it. Anyone have any ideas?
Usually such info can be found in the registry. I'm not sure which keys exactly would contain the information you require, but a quick look showed me that \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ExtModems lists some modems on my WM6 device and each of them has a Port value.
