This modem does not use any Netowrk Inteface cards to work but has special software and plugs into a ISA port. The only software I have for it will only run on Win98 and is called SCMWatch 1.1.1 Connection Manager made by General Instruments of Deleware. I am unable to find a web site for this software and it only seems available from my ISP. My ISP says they will never support anything other than Win98. They do not support Win95 or NT. If anyone has something I can use to allow me to connect via this interface let me know. It seems to be the only possible interface available where I live other than a 33.6 connection. 56k ISPs are not even avaialble!!!. DSL was quoted to costs $7500+ for installation and a max speed of 144k. All other options are well over my financial means. Any holp in this matter would be greatly appreciated as I have great need of features that only seem to be found in BSD and other Unix like systems.
