Okay, I have given up any hope of having a winmodem working under Linux
(there goes my current one!)

Any particular preference out there among the gurus?

Thanks
Russ.

I use the Aopen FM56-itu/2. It's cheap and works great (I got if for
$45CND)

I have the US Robotics Voice Internal 56K PCI. Not sure about the about
model number - but it definately says it is a winmodem.

Have tried to get it working but been unable to ......everyone so far has
said it is a winmodem and will not work.

Are you sure it is a winmodem? I have an internal PCI 56k modem
and it took me 2 weeks to set it up... But I DID set it up! What modem
do you have? I've got the 3Com 5610 (which is actually different
then what it says on the card itself, why is that?)

What took you two weeks? Mind sharing the experience?

Hey I kow what took him two months ;) And I know why he wont share it... Its
a painfull experience for him.. Major trauma.. Winmodems have a * habit
of forcing linux users to commit suicide...

I bought a Jaton Communicator internal 56K modem. It works great under
Linux. It can work in pnp mode or you can use the jumpers (for Linux).
This is a real hardware modem.

I paid $44 at:
