Lucent Softmodem AMR User? I Have the Answer

Share via Twitter Share via Facebook Share via Linkedin Share via Reddit

If you’re in Windows and your Device Manager (right click My Computer, select Manage, and click on Device Manager) reports your modem to be a Lucent Softmodem AMR (or lspci reports it in Linux as Intel Corp. 82801CA/CAM AC’97 Modem Controller), and you cruised over here or here looking for Linux drivers only to find that they don’t support the AMR modems, fear not. I have the answer, and it’s here. I don’t know how or why it works, I just know that it does. And now the last remaining hardware driver hole on my Linux laptop is gone.
