It used to be winmodem=throw it away and get another one, but now there
is some support. Check out the ltmodem drivers, actually dont bother, from the readme:
Hopeless
------------------------------------------------
This kit will FAIL to support currently known
winmodems with chipsets produced by Conexant, Motorola, Intel
and US Robotics. AMR modems from Lucent/Agere and other
manufacturers and not suppoorted by this driver pair.
sorry to not be much help,
