Included software Stinks [Posted on 2001-07-02]
I love the modem. All my other software works with it. But I still haven't got the SUPER VOICE 2.2 to work with it. I can recive calls but can't make them. I have tried new drivers and settings and nothing works. But the modem works fine with the Phone dialer and the TAD works great with the Sound Blaster Live soundcard. Good price great modem. Love it
good modem, good price [Posted on 2001-08-19]
The modem works well and installs easily.
May have problems with XP [Posted on 2001-12-16]
Have been running Windows XP. XP recognizes it as a generic fax/modem and answers the phone everytime it rings as a fax interfering with incoming calls. Creative has not released a driver for XP. It connects about 30 to 50% of the time on first try. Once connected the connection fails about 50% of the time. Have tried to get help from Creative, but nothing yet.
A real Gem! [Posted on 2004-04-27]
This modem is a real gem and a steal at it's price. I owned one for 3 years until it got zapped during a thunderstorm recently and now I am hunting around for another one. You get rock solid connections and excellent throughput and download speeds but one thing that really stands out is its ability to shrug off bad line conditions. I had installed dsl before my modems demise and it performed flawlessly even with the additional line noise brought on by dsl. If you are looking around for a modem as backup to your dsl/cable then look no further. You will be hard pressed to find a finer modem. BTW my pc is a Pentium 200mhz just so you know that this modem is totally undemanding on cpu cycles, in fact its minimum system requirements is a 100mhz cpu! If you look at other int modems out there you will see much higher cpu requirements because the modem depends on your cpu to do some of its work, but not this one! An excellent buy! No other modem comes close in terms of performance.
Works with Linux and Windows XP (for me) [Posted on 2005-04-02]
I bought this to use on a dual-boot Linux/Windows box, it works great in both environments.
