I might join and say that I'm also using a 3com/US Robotics modem.
Mine is an external, 56K Voice Faxmodem.

I've never had any problems with it in Windows or FreeBSD. It always
connects at 52K, which is higher than what most people report about
their modems. It's also what I always recommend to friends and
customers.

It worked successfully in the past with FreeBSD 4.x and now I'm
using it with 5.1-Release.
