Easiest way is to follow this flow...


Is it internal? --- Yes --- Pester your manufacturer, though it's
      |                     probably not worth the bother.[1]
     No
      |
Is it USB? --- Yes --- Probably a winmodem, double check the
      |                literature that came with the modem.
     No
      |
Congratulations, you don't have a Winmodem.




[1] http://www.linuxmafia.com/~rick/faq/#internalmodem I've never got
one of these damn things to work, winmodem or not, on my own system,
and my buddy's old 14.4 Hayes internal was a piece of crap, so I'm of
the opinion that *all* internal modems are worthless crap, except
Winmodems, which are shitty sound cards with the wrong outputs slapped
on.
