Hello,
I saw at driverforum that you asked about a Windows XP driver for the Nokia 6210 modem.
Nokia does not have such a driver it seems. However, I have found a solution:
1) Download the Windows 2000 driver here:
http://www.nokia.com/phones/productsupport/legal.html?file=6210/ModemSetupforNokia_6210.exe
2) When installing it, answer NO (!!!) to install whenever it says that the software is not tested for Windows XP. These non-compatible software components are not needed for Windows XP. (If you install them anyway, XP will be unstable, and you will have to use System Restore!)
3) Delete the modems that the installation program creates ("Nokia 6210 xxxx"). Leave only "Nokia 6210", which is the modem Windows XP plug and play installs for you.
Now you can use Nokia Modem Options in Control Panel to set Nokia 6210 for High Speed Data.
I have tested this method with the infrared port on a Compaq Evo N600c with a English version of Windows XP, and it works without any problems.
