Aris 0 Posted November 12, 2004 Hello, I have just bought my new USB US Robotics modem. After reading most of your posts about this manufacturer, now I would be pleased buddies If you could tell me, which distro will detect my device 100% :-) At the moment I am thinking of buying: Fedora Core 2/3 Mandrake 10.1 Thank you in advance :-) Greetings, Aris K.

danleff 0 Posted November 13, 2004 What exact model do you have? If it is the US Robotics 56k winmodem, it will not work. Share this post Link to post
Dapper Dan 0 Posted November 13, 2004 On a kind of related note, if y'all are like me, I have several 56 K internal modems all over the place, as the result of moving boxes over to cable or DSL. A few days ago, I decided to go through all of them just to see if any would work under Linux. To my surprise and delight, fully two of the nine I tried actually worked! One was a really old 16 bit card that could only manage 9600. But one was an old 3Com PCI that got 51000! I thik I'll take the rest to the shooting range and see how they stand up to my Colt 45...
