No, because there are a ton of different modem manufacturers. Do you really
want to try supporting every modem type that exists in the world?  Besides,
there is also another scenerio where no modem is being used at all because
the computer is getting its internet connection via a local network instead
and thus the modem is connected to a completely different machine
altogether.

Why do you need this?  If anything, just ask the user what he/she is
actually using.  You will save yourself a lot of troubles, and your program
will be that much more flexible in the long run should the user ever change
the connection type to something else later.
