I think the answer is any except winmodems. Any ISA modem with jumper settings for the serial port and interrupt works well. Any external serial modem is fine. Probably a USB modem would work well. Can anybody confirm this? Indeed a Winmodem does not work. My ISP advises against a PCI modem and any internal modem without jumper settings. All the current production are 56 K V.90, but if your telephone lines are as bad as mine, a 33.6 modem is just as fast.
