Ah, Michael, Join another frustrated person!
I have a PCMCIA modem card for a laptop that ostensibly is a Lucent Venus V.90 modem. I have yet to get it to work with Arachne and I have had it for more than 3 years now. Research that I have done indicates that it *may* have Rockwell chips and *may*, in fact, be a win modem, or *may* be a hardware modem. The manuals that came with the laptop said that I need to install the slot and sockets software that come with the modem, but I have yet to find them on the CDs that came with the Laptop. Every once in a while I will spend some time on the web searching for answers, but unfortunately, I haven't been able to find any. Sorry that I can only commiserate.
