i dont think thats true. There are plenty of places I've travelled to where the modem in my laptop ( this was 2002 - 2004 ) didnt work. Eg. the modem that worked fine in the UK didnt work in the US, didnt detect the dialtone, didnt work in australia - the DTMF tones were slightly different and pulse dialing didnt work etc.

Yes, exactly. If we think about it just a little bit, a lot of stars have to line up just so for for two countries-- even countries speaking approximately the same language-- to adopt exactly the same technology.
As with phones, this may also be the case for wireless.
