[hylafax-users] Ext. serial or Int. hardware?



I need advide.

I want to add 2 modems in my HylaFAX server, one for receiving and one
sending faxes. So which 2 modems should I buy:

External Serial Modems or Internal PCI Hardware Modems

Which of these two you reccomend?
And should I buy Class 1 or 2?

Thing is that I don't want to have a lot of trouble installing this two
since I'm novice in modem configuration on Linux.

And last thing..

http://www.hylafax.org/content/Handbook:Basic_Server_Configuration:Choosing_a_Modem
"the functional-but-buggy category are USR/3Com modems; they tend to
work better in Class 1 than in Class 2.0, but it still isn't ideal. (USR
doesn't seem to be fixing these things, either.) If you use one of these
modems and experience problems do not be surprised to learn that it is
an issue with the modem itself."

Does it mean that I don't buy USR modems? They are the most common
external modems in Serbia and Montenegro market...
