I had to buy an external modem (a Zoom V92) for my 7200/75 (and my
trusty LCIII !) when my 3Com V90 Faxmodem died. With both modems
there was no instructions for a Mac installation, but a quick search
of the relevant websites revealed the modem scripts for use with
Remote Access/Open Transport. You'll probably be able to find a
suitable script somewhere in your modems script folder in with the
Extensions which will get you up and running enough to find a script
suitable for your exact model.
