In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dave, I would recommend that you steer clear of Motorola's *SURFR" series. Among all the negatives that I have experienced with these modems, Motorola has discontinued all consumer modem production (that is, they are orphans). I have had good success with Diamond/Supra modems. With all modems, avoid Win Modems. Unfortunately, some modems do depend on Windows more than their display boxes mention.
