thanks for the replies.
no complications yet.
my usb modem has so far been a pure pleasure to use. v fast. wow - if pci versions are even faster.
it is a motorolla surfboard (sb4101).
any help getting it to run with linux (mandrake 9) would be very appreciated.
Did you get a CD with drivers on it. I think there is a driver for Linux on it. Also read this information.
