User Feedback :: looks cool on the keychain BUT

I really like dsl on the pen but it does not like the internal modem on my winbox..stupid winmodems..

I have a us robotics external but it does not like that either or I can not get it too work..no response for help...

the modems in the other two boxs running dsl are ISA modems with rockwell chipsets and work fine..but I can not rob those as the winbox does not have ISA slots...

do not need another modem on the winbox so external would be nice for dsl pen.

DOES ANYONE KNOW AN EXTERNAL MODEM THAT WORKS WITH DSL

..happy to buy new or look for used...just want to go online via the pen...otherwise not sure what it is usefull for cool as it may be

It's difficult for me to imagine your problem. Perhaps you can describe your situation a little more completely.

What version of DSL are you using? Are you booting directly from USB, or running it embedded with QEMU? What, specifically have you done to try to get your modems to work? What happens?

difficuly to imagine..hahaha....must be a case of polinuxal incorrectness......was just requsting a good choice in externals...they do not all say works with dsl on the box you know...and no suprise win modems do not work or that isa are obsolete... or that no one knows about an old 14.4 sportster..Oh Well..I will find one sooner or later..

Adding...based on all the reading it seems that most external serial modems work...that does not nessessarily include mine but also wonder about the serial ports on the acer t135 tower..maby the modem is fine.. I need another computer?

at any rate dsl works fine on the lexar pen drive installed and running on the t135 unit but no internet. will try a few random pci modems while decideing on another computer.

Well no luck getting a modem working on the acer t135 tower but dsl works fine from the pen otherwise..

decided to take it to my buddies place he has an aopen pent 3 tower with 128 meg ram and two usb ports...
plug in the pen and the usb boot floppy..start with dsl vga=normal..fine until it boots x
try all the dsl vga=7xx and will not boot x proper

actually boots x but the monitor is messed up...

is it restoreing settings from the pen? how may I fix that..or is it something else

thanks for any

Well guess this suggests that one external is as good as the next and x on another box is my problem.

damnshame I really like my pen install and the portable idea..

stumped
