I would recommend a GeoPort the 33.6 software is out now I beleive.
but since you don't have a PowerMac of Quadra AV then you won't be
able to use that so I would suggest trying a Meastro 33.6+ but the
MacComCentre isn't super briliant either.  It does the job and comes
free with the Meastro but I have had an occational hickup with it on
a performa 580 running 7.5.5.

Best of luck.
Andrew.
