Yes you can ! A modem is a modem , but the trick is to find software
support for the modem . You don't say what you will use to drive it !
If you will be using Apple Remote Access , or PPP, then you will need a
script to put in the Extension Folder ' Modem Scripts ".
Alternately you may be able to use FreePPP.
In Perth Australia I have used Netcomm & Banksia modems, but there are
others available that are sourced from USA.
Be advised that some modems do not have 25 pin connectors !
