Re: [LUG] Modem Drivers-Meet

Good advice, but for windows too. USB modems are flaky, cheap and nasty
imo. The speedtouch 330 I got with one of my eclipse accounts crashed
any computer it was connected to that had a via chipset (turns out it
needs more power than via will give it, but I didn't know that before).

That's one thing I forgot too. VIA chipsets hate USB modems, and sometimes even a driver update from www.viaarena.com doesn't fix it.

Kind regards,

Julian
