I'll let Randy/Ross (or anyone better qualified than me!) answer the "how".
 
A very strong negative recommendation:
 
   Don't buy or use USRobotics Sportster modems!
 
We've had an average of about 2 failures (and replacements) per modem,
and frequently must power cycle them to "clear them up".
 
True, they are cheap ... but ask yourself why USR Sportsters are so
much cheaper than USR Couriers (which are well rated) ... I think it's
because quality often costs more.
