Personally I prefer the MultiTech external modems (I had a very bad
experience with USR support years ago so avoid them like the plague).

There's nothing Linux-specific about a modem other than it's not a
winmodem.  External modems should all be OS neutral, and I much prefer them
because (a) I can reset them when the wedge without rebooting the machine,
and (b) I can see what's going by looking at the blinking lights.
