Someone else recommended, back near the beginning of the thread, Multi-Tech modems. I've got one of their industrial strength models (steel case, one line LED display on front panel, buttons for programming it, solid as a rock) that I got for 40 bucks on ebay around 3 years ago. Normally it's around $379 or threabouts. but almost any external serial will work and they are certainly less grief than what you're experiencing trying to get your USB modem going.
