23104 2001-10-30 08:58:00 I want to upgrade my 56k Lucent Win Modem to another 56k modem that will be compatible with Linux and Windows.

What features do I look for?

Any recommendations?

Avoid external USB modems as I believe they are a WIN modem as well (shoot me if I am wrong on that). US robotics and 3com also do good hardware modems as well, just a bit more expensive than the Dynalinks.
Dynalinks range from $180 up.
Linux will not recognise win modems and I believe Win 2k will not recognise them as well.
