I prefer Global Village modems; I'm using a 28.8Kbps on my SE/30 right now. They have the cable built into them, so you don't need to hund down the Mac serial to DB-25 cable needed for most other makes of modem. Their drivers are online (Teleport 2.5.6 I think) I also use a US Robotics Sportster on another Mac; it's a 56K, and seems to be faster than the internal 56K on my G4, but it isn't as "cute" as the Global Village models. As far as a driver, I had it running with FreePPP with no driver, just the default initialization string. Most modems will work like that in my experience. (I'm guessing the Global Village modems will too, but the software gives a nice status bar on the menubar; a nice touch) Hope this helps, J White -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
