FWIW, I have the 5634TS listed at <http://www.archtek.com/allmodems.htm> and it's worked just fine for me. I forget which chipset it has, but it's on the recommended list above. (I think it's a TI chipset, IIRC.) Something else to consider is V.92, although it probably wouldn't be that useful (since your ISP has to support it as well). But V.90 prices should be somewhat lower than before the introduction of V.92. > Really. How depressing. Well, a PCI will (or should) work as well, as long > as it's not a WinModem. And cross-check your PCI modems at <http://www.idir.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html>, since there are precious few non-winmodems in a PCI form factor. -- Bill Jonas * bill@billjonas.com * http://www.billjonas.com/ "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin Attachment:
