Which internal modem is supported by linux and would work with no problems?


Im just wondering which internal modem would work without any hitches on linux?

I realise the disadvantages of internal modems and that external hardware modems are better but external modems take up unneccessary space and generally cost more than internal ones.

Any controller-based hardware modem will work fine.

That means that the modem is complete. It needs no software to work correctly, just a symbalic link.
