17. Modems

All internal modems or external modems connected to the serial port.

A small number of modems come with DOS software that downloads the control program at runtime. These can normally be used by loading the program under DOS and doing a warm boot. Such modems are probably best avoided as you won't be able to use them with non PC hardware in the future.

All PCMCIA modems should work with the PCMCIA drivers.

Fax modems need appropriated fax software to operate.
