Post by thread:FCC Registration Number,etc. [OT]

Hi everyone, I trying to get information (brand,model,speed,drivers) about an old modem with FCC registration number 1B92MB-60334-MD-E. I've looked at the FCC site but I can't gather any info because they only list the products with FCC ID. What is the difference ? I want to find out if i can use this modem with Linux... I installed Linux over a month ago and unfortunately, i found myself with a winmodem so i'm trying to find out if this old modem will serve my purpose. Also, I'm transferring my PIC related activities to linux..I have downloaded and installed gpasm,gpsim and picutils. Is there any Eagle counterpart in the Linux sphere, I remember someone talking about x-circuits(?). Where can I get one ? What other Linux PIC tools (soft/hard-ware) can you recommend.. Any pointers, urls, tutorials out there... Your 2 cents worth will be gratefully remembered.... All the best :-), Alan

Go to http://www.fcc.gov/oet then only type in the first 3 or 6 characters of the FCC ID. Try 3 first 1B9 if that does not work then type in the first 6: 1B92MB The company I work for makes two way radios and our older radios had a 6 character company identifier now the FCC has shortened it to 3 Gary Fiber Alan Aldaba wrote: {Quote hidden}> > Hi everyone, > > I trying to get information (brand,model,speed,drivers) about an old > modem with FCC registration number 1B92MB-60334-MD-E.

Try a place like http://www.driverguide.com/ and sign up. then you can gain access to drivers and look under fcc reg. lookup. Then you can see the brand and make and speed and drivers(if any available) and it will also point you to the manufacturer www site. Most/all modems work with linux(except for some odd ones like a us robotics sportster WINmodem 56K :) Andrew On Mon, 24 Jan 2000 19:56:40 +0800 Alan Aldaba <spam_OUTallenTakeThisOuTSUPER.NET.PH> writes: {Quote hidden}> Hi everyone, > > I trying to get information (brand,model,speed,drivers) > about an old > modem with FCC registration number 1B92MB-60334-MD-E.

Even some externals are now becoming winmodems, some with USB are "controllerless". Many ISA internals are winmodems, and practically all PCI are winmodems, an unfortunate sign of the times, dump everything on the CPU. I am PRAYING for LINUX to become as big as everyone thinks it will be to sway this "windows only" course. TTYL

More and more modems these days are software modems that won't work without the drivers. And most of them only have drivers for Windoze. If it's a PCI modem ... well, good luck. Last I heard there are only two or three PCI modms known to be true hardware modems. > On Mon, 24 Jan 2000 19:56:40 +0800 Alan Aldaba <.....allenKILLspam@spam@SUPER.NET.PH> > writes: > > Hi everyone, > > > > I trying to get information (brand,model,speed,drivers) > > about an old > > modem with FCC registration number 1B92MB-60334-MD-E.

I checked http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html for that FCC ID and found that modem listed as being made by Zoltrix. It's also listed as being an ISA modem with jumpers. Unfortunately it's unknown as to whether or not it'll work. I tried Zoltrix's website - nothing there. > > Also, I'm transferring my PIC related activities to linux..I > > have > > downloaded and installed gpasm,gpsim and picutils.
