I did some research. USB modems use the Conexant (now owned by Rockwell)
chipset.
The drivers are propietary.
There used to be freeware reverse engineered drivers and the other option was
to use Dell windows drivers using the windows driver compatability package.
They may not be compatible with
win modems are (were) PCI hardware.
Standalone modems are not winmodems.
There is a USB modem standard.
They dont include linux compatability in their specs because as far as they are
concerned no one uses linux.

I attached a modem to it and set up a hylafax server.

The most common answer is to use an app on a smartphone or a web site. Both

Yes. But anyone who answers the line gets it. If the line is shared
between a FAX and
a person/answering machine, who ever answers first gets it.

Are USB modems supported?
I guess so - that's how mobile modems are used. They just emulate
serial AT protocol on top of USB. NetworkManager will generally
auto-detect and configure them.
