Google tells me that Rocket is the model name for Comtrol multi-port
serial cards and modems.

"or something like that" isn't really specific enough for us to help
you.  You might need to crack the case.

Almost certainly the modems use the AT command set.  Documentation
would be useful, but minicom and this web page should start you off.

Is "common sense" really valid?
For example, it is "common sense" to white-power racists that
whites are superior to blacks, and that those with brown skins
are mud people.
However, that "common sense" is obviously wrong.
