It looks like you found just what you want. ActionTec makes pretty good modems, and this device seems to be priced as good as any external modem is likely to be. Although I still doubt the wisdom of investing in a dial-up modem in this day and age except for very special cases, if one does want an external dial-up modem to work with Knoppix, this sure looks like a good choice.
