Modems

I personally have an external Dynalink modem. Works great! Because it is an external modem, you don't have to worry about drivers. It is a lot more expensive though. Something like...
http://www.qmb.co.nz/p.aspx?100500 $125.06

I also have a Connexant Winmodem, and that works well too. It's something like this...
http://www.qmb.co.nz/p.aspx?100499 $17.99
Drivers are available from Linuxant. The full featured driver costs US$14.95. Their explaination - https://www.linuxant.com/store/faq.php.

Friends of mine have had some luck with the !Intel HaM modems...

(Note: I have nothing to do with QMB or Dick Smith, except as a customer.)
