I need a dial-up modem that will work under the 2.6 kernel.  (I'm
using FC3, big surprise right?)  The modem I have now is only
supported for the 2.4 kernel.  I would like to find a reasonably
priced modem if it's possible, and I figured you guys would be the
ones to ask.  I don't feel like feeding the monster (Comcast) any more
of my money.



I too was in your situation...I had a PCTel PCT789-based modem which has great drivers for kernel 2.4, but none for 2.6. I was really hoping to find a PCI modem, but in the end couldn't find anyone who could say "yes, this <insert relatively inexpensive PCI modem here> definitely works with kernel 2.6". But some kind soul DID point me at the following external serial modem which I can confirm works great with both Linux and Windows:

and found it available (white-box) at:

for about $16.00 (unfortunately, they're out of stock as I type this). But it's available in many places for $30.00 - $35.00. Hope this helps.
