I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean by your last sentence. If it
helps this link http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/20001025a.html is a fairly
comprehensive list of modems which are described as working/not working with
Linux.
I know nothing about your modems but FWIW *most* external external modems
work with Linux, I say most because there are 1 or 2 starting to emerge that
are winmodems, if you need to buy one check that it is a 100% hardware modem.
It may also help you to do a search on linmodems (I can't remember the
address) for information about drivers for some winmodems.
