Title: ZFM5600 does not work with my XP Home
Review: This modem has a good price and description. I started to worry as soon as I opened the box and saw the 1.4 Floppy holding the drivers. Expecting plug & play I tried out the modem. The Modem opens the port,dials, exchanges carriers and then fails to complete the authentication process. Same problem on two different computers. The PCMCIA slot works with my Zoom modem so the trouble must be with the ZFM5600. Checked the disk for a dedicated XP driver and found this: "Windows 2000 and XP operating system can auto-detect V.92/V.90 56Kbps Data/FAX Modem PCMCIA PC Card, so it doesn't install special driver." Checked the FAQs on the Zonet site, found no specifics just motherhood articles on networking. Sent email to Zonet support... still waiting for reply... maybe next week.From the other reviews the Linux guys seem to be having more luck with this modem?
Is the review positive or negative?
