I bought this to use on a dual-boot Linux/Windows box, it works great in both environments.
modem problems

The Modem Blaster DI5630 v.90 is the most for the dollar. I have built systems using many Top of the Line models from some of the biggst names in the industry. But when the phone system is not running perfect the Creative Labs product logs on at a higher speed 100% of the time by as much as 8 to 10 KBPS as is the easiest to install and configure. I would recomend this to anyone. I run this modem in my home and office. Thank you,

IT WAS THAT TIME,I HAD BEEFED UP MY RAM,VIDEO CARD UPDATED TO A NEW VERSION OF AOL,THE TIME CAME FOR A NEW MODEM.I READ UP ON SOME OF THE MODEMS BUT I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS FACING WHEN I WALKED INTO THE LOCAL COMPUTER STORE.BRANDS OF MODEMS I NEVER HEARD OF AND MY CONCERN WAS IT GOING TO BE THE RIGHT CHOICE? 3 CLERKS GAVE ME 3 OPINIONS WHICH DIDNT HELP.I FINALLY GOT THE CREATIVE MODEM 5630.IT BOASTED PNP,WELL THIS WASNT THE CASE,AFTER 3 TRIES I GOT IT TO LOAD THE DRIVERS AND THE OTHER ADD ONS WHICH WERE A PLUS.INTALLATION WAS 10 MINS TOPS. MY CONNCECTION SPEEDS WERE INCREASED.I RARELY CONNNECT BELOW 48000BPS.DEFINITELY AN INCREASE FROM 44000.ASIDE FROM THE PLUG AND PLAY DIFFICULTY I WOULD SAY IT WAS WORTH THE PRICE.

I just bought this product cuz the modem in my computer [was not good] and would only connect at the most 36kbps and it was slow and would kick me off all the time. So i bought this modem and now i connect at 115kbps and it works everytime.
