    How do I find out before I go and buy a usb modem that its going to be
    detected as a umodem or a ugen device. I assume when its detected as a ugen
    then the modem is some type of usb winmodem and its not going to work under
    bsd. Are usb modems with CAPI support always winmodems?

    Thanks
     Brad
