My experience (and this is true for all external modems) is kudzu
recognises it some times but never deals with it correctly. What I
mean by correctly is that when it is on but not connected more than
one light should be on. Was the original poster talking about an
external modem or an external modem?

The modem connects and works ok but the data flow is not optimal.
