You have two options; buy another modem or try and get yours to work (it's possible). I would pick the first option (well, I already have a big box full of them). The modem you're looking for is an external v.92 serial modem. These modems will work with ANYTHING that has an rs-232 serial port. You can pick one up on ebay for a few bucks, say with the name brands like US Robotics, in-fact buy a US Robotics modem. USR Sportster Faxmodem, back in the day you could not go wrong with one of these babies.
