is it an adsl modem or modem-modem
adsl modems are usually just usb network cards.
if its a modem modem, then yeah google for it, or look on www.usb-linux.org (could be linux-usb.org)
sorry off the top of my head. generally dlink stuff is good in linux though. i use generally with some reservations.
