| | Softmodem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Winmodems have earned a certain notoriety for slowing down their computer systems and for having buggy drivers, although this reputation was largely garnered during the period of their introduction to the mass-market, whereupon they were oft to use substandard drivers, and be found in entry-level computers with slow CPUs. |  | | More commonly however, winmodem drivers are usually enhanced in regards to their performance and to eliminate possible software bugs. |  | | Lucent / Agere Winmodem driver software for Linux |

 | | If you buy a winmodem, also make sure you know that whenever you connect or disconnect it will lock up your computer for a few seconds, so don't be playing games or burning CD's while you do that. |  | | Winmodems do not work in any other OS other than Windows 9X (As of this writing, OEM models still do not work in Windows 2000) |  | | Since they have less parts, they often are only about 1.5" high (fits in FLEX-ATX cases), and of course they do not work in real mode DOS, Linux, BeOS, or any other OS. |

| | But That's Just My Opinion. I Could Be Wrong. |
 | | Details: By definition, a winmodem is one that requires MS-Windows "engine" software to function, because it lacks otherwise-required circuitry. |  | | (Newer ones are PCI, about which see the winmodem section, below.) ISA PnP has never worked well, and in pre-2.4 kernel versions requires manual configuration in Linux (using the isapnptools package). |  | | Do "lspci -vv" and "lspci -n", while logged in as the root user, to list all PCI devices in hopes of identifying your PCI winmodem chipset, if that's what you have. |
