#Zoom 56k usb modem install serial#
The modem includes its own control processor which understands AT commands directly, so only a basic USB serial driver is needed. This is a traditional controller based modem from a manufacturer with a solid product history. A USR5637 online User Guide is available.Ĭompared to other dial-up modems I have tried, I like the USRobotics modem for its stability. There is no speaker, so to hear the modem dial and connect you must pickup a handset. This modem is about the size of a cell phone (significantly larger than the Zoom or Apple USB Modem). I also tested faxing with this modem and it worked without incident. In the Network Preferences panel, select USB Modem, click Advanced, set the Vendor to "Other", and Model to "USRobotics 56K USB Modem".

You'll need to install the software from the included CD first, and then plug-in the modem for it to be recognized by Mac OS X.
The manual included with the modem is unclear about the installation procedure. Testing Notes: In my testing, this modem worked well. Users report this modem does recognize Caller ID in the UK, but does not come supplied with a UK compatible landline cable, so you may need an appropriate adaptor cable. The USR5637 is available from Amazon for around US$50.
