I have been looking for this driver for ages… can someone give me a link to download it or something?

Cheers.

[You could try here.](http://www.conexant.com/customer/md_winxpinfo.html)

If that does not work, I strongly suggest buying a REAL modem. 🙂

Might I suggest a US Robotics Model 5610-B?  
[Click here for specifications.](http://direct.mwave.com/mwave/doc2/482185.html)

They are about $65.00 or thereabouts.  
Being a hard-core geek, and prior to getting DSL, I was a real hardware nazi about modems.  
It really does make a big difference.

Good luck and post more if you have additional questions.
