Yes! If it's a bog standard serial modem (ie Hayes compatible), it will
work. Internal chips then not of concern.
I've just had a look at the US Robotics web site below:
<http://www.usr-emea.com/support/s-prod-template.asp?loc=unkg&prod=5668b>
The rear view of this modem shows a 25 pin DIN connector, so it's
definately a serial modem. Shouldn't be any problems.
