This may not be the best place to ask, but does anybody know how to
identify USR modems by model/product numbers? The USR/3Com site is
worthless. I need to know so that I can set up my ppp.

The model # is 0266 and the product # is 550 5315 A (at least I think
it's the product #). The modem is pretty old, Copyright 1994.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave

You might go to www.deja.com and do a search. I found great advice this
morning for a modem problem.

Have you tried http://www.veryComputer.com/

Once you have identified your product code, click on
"I already know my product code" and follow the
instructions. Clicking on "View Product Information"
will identify the type of modem with that product
code.

The "550 5315 A" is the Industry Canada approval number. You will also
probably find an FCC registration number of CJEUSA-65828-FA-E printed on
the back of the modem.

This sounds like a plain vanilla ISA Sportster Faxmodem with jumpers. The
exact revision number of the modem can be found by sending an "ATI3" to
the modem and reading the response (e.g., "SPORTSTER 14400 FAX RS Rev.
1.7")

Good luck!

Thanks for the web site, I think I'll be able to do it now. BTW, how did you
find that? I looked on the 3com site for about 45min and couldn't find anything
like it.

Thanks,

I found it several months ago, before the US Robotics site was
integrated into 3Com's, and it was easier to navigate.

Good luck!
