Win modem x FreeBSd

[Lute Mullenix]

Luis,

If you are going to be using Linux and FreeBSD of any of the
other BSDs, it would be in your best interest to pick up a
"real" modem, while I have heard, and you have said that you
were able to get the winmodem working with a driver, this will
not always be the case. Also while Windows may require you to
install a drive for a "real" modem, Linux and FreeBSD will use
them with no special drivers just plug them in and go. A while
back I was able to pick up a Diamond 56K external very
reasonable at a local computer store moving sale. It worked
great until I was able to get hooked up to broadband.

As a side note, sometime I would like to travel to Brazil, from
what I have seen and read, it looks like a very beautiful
country, and I bet the weather is great.

Good luck

 Lute
