Any way to get a 3Com 3cn3bm1556b 56k Winmodem to work in Linux?

[pr-man 1]

Thanks in advance

WinModems are just that Windows Modems. They rely on processor to do the work. To my knowledge, there are no drivers for any winmodems for Linux.

 

You can pickup a Linux compatible PCI modem for under $50.00 U.S.

 

If you have a spare PCI slot, just drop one of those bad boys in and you are set. Else, get an external device (USB or RS232) for a bit more.
