• US Robotics USB Modems...

    From Kruption@1:226/17 to All on Tue Mar 5 07:29:20 2019
    Hello!

    Are there any experienced SysOps (or ANYbody) that has used the USR 5433b USB External modem with linux? I'm trying to figure out how to configure it. The problem is, that model, it turns on when the driver is installed (No off/on button). I've looked on Google, but I've found very old threads, that wasn't much help...

    Thanks for ANY help!
    Regards,

    That's a WinModem, I think - the Windows driver did some of the heavy lifting, so they could make a cheaper (but incompatible w/o a driver) modem.
