Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This USB modem works well with Mac OS X Leopard for web surfing, however the installation guide is not up to date for OS X 10.5.6 Leopard users. I had to figure out on my own how to install it. If you have OS X 10.5.6 or later do this:
for STEP THREE: INSTALL THE MODEM DRIVER MAC OS X 10.4.3 OR LATER
complete steps 1 through 5 then click on the ADVANCED button. Then do step 6, select the modem tab, in VENDOR select other, in MODEL select USRobotics 56K USB modem. Check Enable error correction and compression in modem. In Dial Mode select "Wait for Dial tone before dialing" in drop down menu. Set Dialing to Tone and Sound to On or Off. Click OK.
Once I did this I was able to connect to the internet using AOL. In fact I am writing this review on a macbook with the USR5637 and AOL.
Unlike the Apple USB modem this one comes with a thick telephone cable. The performance is good, it seems to speed up surfing a little bit. I bought this from Amazon and am pleased with the results so far.
