a bit pricy, but you pay for what you get. bought as a gift for my dad in case a modem is required to connect in case of lack of ethernet. a bit annoying that i had to use the install cd instead of windows automatically attributing the correct driver but that's why the cd is provided. gets a little warm during use, i don't know if that's going to be a problem or not. solidly constructed. seems to be a proper product. i cannot compare to the cheaper ones available although i did browse before buying. this one just seemed more solid then the others and on up close inspection, that is the case. having the usb cable already connected is a plus for me instead of having to finagle with extraneous wires all the time.
Maybe for you, Not for me.

I don't yet want to give this unit a bad reputation, but my unit puts out a lot of Radio Frequency Hash (interference), and the drivers won,t install. I wanted to use it with my con-currently bought EC1433u netbook which has no issues whatsoever, but no luck. It just don't work, Period. No Fault Of TigerDirect. They are GREAT!

PRO: Works, but have not been able to verify transmission speed when FAXing. Therefore, cannot accurately rate performance.
CONS: Supplied BVRP FAX software does not utilize my sound card to provide audio so I can monitor establishment of FAX connection as I had expected.

I got this modem to relieve me of the headache finding a pci modem that would function on linux. The only stumbling block in getting it to function was finding the right port it had been mounted on. Typing dmesg in a terminal before plugging it in and then again after plugging it in will reveal the mount point you can use to in any of the fax programs you want to make use of. efaxgtk was my preference.

I needed a modem for my phone book with auto dialer & for Fax & compatible with windows 7. This fit my bill & has caller ID. Instructions say to remove any other modems before install & I had a bluetooth over USB, I guess from my cell phone (never used it)so had a little trouble with install. May not have needed to install it's software anyway & windows 7 has easier fax than the USR's. USB connection brings potability
