This is a great Modem that would be a fine choice for a backup. Nowadays most places have DSL, WiFi, Wimax, or 3/4g but still a dial-up modem would be good to have on hand for faxing and that odd emergency when you really need a connection. The form-factor could not be simpler- a USB dongle with software already installed. Unfortunately, there is an issue with newer MACs. This should work fine with PowerPC Macs, the 64 bit Intel Macs will likely get a message "This accessory is no longer supported". It appears that some older Intels can be restarted in 32 bit mode- and allow the use of this nifty gadget- If you have the latest Intel maybe not- if the software isn't onboard it still would not work. That is a shame because then you'd have to use a clunky outboard USB modem with it's own software problems! So, if you have a Power PC Mac this is an excellent choice. If you have an earlier Intel Mac then you could try...they are not expensive. There may be additional info on the internet...someone may have found a way to use these. I hope so because they are really nifty gadgets!Read full review
I bought this Apple USB port modem to use on an older Mac Book because the new iMac cannot running the new OS 10.7 (Lyon) cannot send faxes using a plug in modem. Thus when I need to send a fax, instead of looking for an actual fax machine, I just plug in this modem into my older Mac Book and fax my material. It's a same that this was done away with the new Mac OS operating system, but that's progress. We no longer usually send Faxes, since sending PDF files via e-mail works just as well, but for those old folks who have to use a Fax, this works just fine.
I like the fact that using this out of its packaging took me about 5 minutes. I was able to connect to my ISP server on the other side of the world just like that. I wish my MacBook Pro had an internal modem so I didn't need to purchase an external modem but what do you do? I only need to dial in to get connected to the internet when I travel to a remote area where there are no other services. Would recommend to everyone who may need the old phone lines once on a while. Great product.
This product was perfect. I received it, plugged it in, set it up in system preferences, and 3 minutes later, here I am using the modem to write this review. Great, quality product, easy and fast to use and set up. I am using it on the new generation white unibody macbook. Highly recommended.
great modem: light, compact, and easy to use. You don't need any software or update at all. Just plug it and use it.
