They are telephone adaptors that depend on their drivers for carry out the functions of a modem. Real modems have this ability hardwired in.  To use a Winmodem with linux/FreeBSD,you have to have a drive written for that operation system. I know that they exist for Linux for some modems, but I'm not sure about FreeBSD.
