It looks like I may need a PCMCIA USB adapter after all in order to
salvage my PC Card Fax Modem (which works with DSL) after all.
The problem is that many fax modems will not work with DSL.
And, Rosewill Tech Support just confirmed this.

Anyone with DSL using a 56k fax modem to send fax?  If so,
what's the make/model of your 56k fax modem?
