I'm not sure, I've searched for it but no luck. I already read this mac wise.com/Modem_Problems.html but I didn't understand how could help me, takeing into account I'm just a newbie. Is there any tutotrial o another easier way to make this PCI Fax Modem Card from Motorola gets online?

Field Note #1 @shoarthing 2010-03-22

Hi - this link might help (mac wise.com/Modem_Problems.html) with the issues involved with getting a s/w modem to work in OSX . . . are you sure there is an x86 kext for this device? . . I've only seen these in Powermacs.

Field Note #2 @shoarthing 2010-03-22

If it is PPC-only, there won't [can't] be support in 10.6.x

Suggest you obtain a supported device. Apple supplied a USB modem with x86 support.
