external serial modem

hello! i have a problem with winmodem, softmodem an usb modem else! i have 
installed OpenSUSE 10.3 in an ACER laptop and a customised desktop but in 
both i can't connect internet!
so i have decided to buy an external serial modem, i need to know if the 
following works in both computer or in the desktop at least :


HAMLET modem v.92 serial voice Conexant,  model HV92KX2, type analogic, 
connected to serial port (serial cable RS232, phone cable RJ11)


i wait for your help very urgent ( i can't use windows for internet and SUSE 
for all other needs!)

That needs a closed source driver which isn't free.

Where's the time you didn't need a driver for a modem. You just made sure it
was Hayes compatible.

Seems like they took a step back, since I last used them.
