Day Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> asked: Is there a PCI modem with jumpers?
...And John Oram <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> answered: FYI: Day I tried the Goggle search engine and found at <www.cnet.com> this info showed up: USR 56K FAX/MODEM INTERNAL V.90 W/JUMPERS AND P&P List Price: N/A Lowest Price: $37.95 Manufacturer: 3Com Corp. Part Number: 00568703 ... and I add: That sounds like the one I bought for the wife's 600 Mhz eMachines windoze box. Yes, it has jumpers. (Leave them all off, and it is Plug & Pray) It has the great Lucent chipset, and the full complement of UART, DSP chips. It also is a voice modem, and can act as a great little voicemail answering machine. (Software CD included for this nice application...) It cost me $40(?) in Best Buy a year ago... but it took half an hour to carefully read all of the documentation available for the two-dozen modem models they sold - before I found one that was a real, no-crap, self-contained PCI modem. It replaced some "Won Hung Lo Ltd." Rockwell-chipped no-name 56k winmodem that came with the machine, and couldn't hold a connection for more than 40-50 seconds. BTW - today, an external modem is no guarantee that it ISN'T a "winmodem". If it comes with software, check it VERY closely before buying! - John T. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE Valentine eCards with Yahoo!
