That is a NIC card not a modem as far as I know.

The modem you want (if you want to go USRobotics is...

(card)

or I recommend going with an external USB modem... it\'s more flexible and I have found better results when having to use a modem.

There are MUCH cheaper modems out there (I like the Creative Modem, external) which you can get for around $50 online.

That in itself should solve all your problems.
