I use a couple of unbranded £3.99 sort of modems, the way to go about it
is to find out what chipsets are used in the modem and then verify that
the modem is indeed a real hardware modem.
Connextant is one company that makes quite a lot of the chipsets used
over the last 4 - 5 years, but they have many s/w modem too - so make
sure you buy into the right thing.
btw, most pcmcia modems work fine - and its not hard getting a pci
hosted pcmcia socket on ebay these days. Depends on what you are trying
to get.
