The best advice I can give you is to take the modem back and buy a real
modem.  Stay away from garbage modems such as USRobotics, 3com, and
creative.  They all make terrible modems.  Another brand you should not
touch with a 500 foot pole is ANY modem from lucent(LT).  Jaton makes good
modems.  I recommend the Jaton Modulator V.90.  It is Plug and Pray or
Legacy.  It has CallerID, Voicemail, speakerphone, and much more.  The best
part is you can get it for less then 60 bucks.  It has worked on everything
I have tried it on.  Linux, win.3.x win9x win2k, winNT, sun, And so much
more.  It is an ISA modem though so make sure you have an ISA slot open.
