I have used U. S. Robotics, Zoom, and Hayes modems with no problem on
FreeBSD versions from 3.1 through 4.7. I've used them both for dialing out
and receiving calls. I'm sure others will work but I'm just sharing my own
experience.

Been into FreeBSD for a few years now but have always been blessed with
broadband connection.
I want to experiment with modem connections. I am under the impression that
any HW modem can be used, which makes sense, but I would like a bit of input
before I go out and have to buy a dozen modems, looking for compatibility.
FBSD 4.7 on a P III Asus.
Thanx

1. Cable modem..56 modem dial up, 500K cable modem download stream...
I have 2 network cards and 1 modem in a Linux Box with RH6.
My cable modem uses the modem to start a PPP session, and the network card
is then hooked up to the VPN of the ISP.
I would like to setup a IP Masquraded Firewall to hook some of my other
boxes
behind the firewall.
I cannot find a HOW-TO to setup the Linux box using this type of Cable
Modem. I
have only found 2 way cable modems. Can someone point me it the right
direction.
My problem is that I don't know how to get Linux connected, then also, how
do I configure
ipchains or ipfwadm to use the correct rule set. Do I do the modem or the
network card. The
network card has a static IP of 10.0.0.1 which is usally used for VPNs. My
cable company
is of corse not supporting Linux, so I have to do it myself. The PPP dialup
uses DHCP to
assign my address so I have dhcp setup.
Thanks in advance..
Aaron
