How do I know if I have a winmodem?

[Infohawk]

I followed this site to tell if I have a winmodem.

http://winmodem.nhvt.net/identify.htm

Is this the definitive way to tell? According to its technique, I do not have a winmodem. But I'm not completely convinced because I'm having trouble with my modem under linux.

The reason I have doubts about my modem is that I was following a guide that said to do the following.

/usr/sbin/pppd

It said normally this would produce ten lines of garbage.

I tried this on my linux laptop and it worked, but on this desktop it did not work.

My modem is a Conexant V.90/56K Telephony Modem.

Was that site correct or is there another way I can tell if I have a winmodem?

Never mind, I have a winmodem.

That site I mentioned in my first post was wrong.

You should go here:

and it will tell you if you have a winmodem or not. I should have known that it was a winmodem when I coudln't get my modem working in dos. :'(
