You can still get external 56K dial up modems though. -- Best Regards: Baron. |

I was using a Webramp 200i before DSL came to the area. My side of the box behaves like your typical WAN-router. Other side connected with a built-in 56K modem. -- replace cap after use /|>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>\| /| I may be demented \| /| but I'm not crazy! \| /|<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<\| * SPAyM trap: there is no X in my address * |

Has anyone found a USB modem that works with 10.3 > X86-64? The Zoom 3095 USB Mini External 56K Modem works with Linux. It uses the Conexant chipset, which can be run under Linux with the Linuxant driver (see www.linuxant.com). This driver does cost $20 (US) if you want the full capabilities. This was the only one that I found that actually states it works with Linux. They even give a copy of the driver on the disk (an old one though. You will want to get the latest one from linuxant) I bought one to go with my eeePC (on ebay), as I very occasionally need dial up. They seem to come up quite regularly on ebay. NB I assume that it will work with x86_64. > > Thanks > Paul -- Regards, David Bailey david _AT_ bailey dot id dot au |
