99% of all modems are analog. There are some digital modems, but
they're rare. But you need to be careful, because DSL routers are
sometimes mislabeled as Modems, even though they're technically not.

Virtually all external modems which connect to the COM1/COM2 serial port
work perfectly fine.

Any external hardware modem (The serial kind), or any internal hardware
modem (Usually ISA PNP types, if you can specify a com port via jumpers,
it's hardware) will work just fine with FreeBSD. As a bonus, they also
tend to have much better throughput than software modems.
