- WRONG ANSWER.
-
- people should be warned when talking us modems out of the us for other
- countries! every other modem company will give you the same answer. its
- illegal to use non approved modems in other countries. its a crime..
- and the punishment if you get caught varies to where you are.. and
- if any modem company helped you, they could loose thier permission
- to sell modems in that country.
