these are *way* too complicated with the limited resources we have. My ADSL modem alone needs more firmware downloaded (770K) into it everytime it starts than what DOS was designed for. Then the driver needs to support USB *and* ATM *and* PPP over ATM *and* the (non-standard) protocol to talk to the modem. Completely different from external serial modems which just need Hayes commands sent to them via COMX. You'd be better off using a (as simple as possible, say ISA NE2000 style) network card and an ethernet cable to an ADSL hub or a Linux/Windows PC with IP Forwarding.
