Well I do not have experience of this particular modem, but looking at the 
spec it looks like an excellent choice. (BTW: Long ago in  a former life I 
used to design modems)
The manual is clear and very detailed. It contains a complete breakdown of 
the command strings so you will be able to create initialisation strings to 
make the modem  act in the way you desire.
It does not depend on any external software to control the modem. Everything 
is done simply through ASCII 'AT' command strings which makes it OS 
independent.
There is even a chapter in the installation manual about using it under Linux.

As for V.92, yes you should be able to use it. The manual states it will be 
autoselected if your ISP dial in server supports it.

It is also designed with the international market in mind. Many modem 
manufacturers assume what works in the US will work elsewhere, which is 
simply not true.

I wish more modems were spec'd like this.
(Of course it might still be a terrible modem, but I cannot tell that by 
looking at the spec)
