If you can boot to Windoze or Dos and configure the modem, then warm/soft
boot into Linux and have the modem actually then work, its not a win modem, but
a PnP modem that is soft set, eg software configured.  Not the same as a win
modem, but almost as much a pain.  Older Zoom ComStar's are a prime example.
