The Verizon wireless modems use a Hayes-like "AT" command set (much like a regular land-line modem) so it will *probably* work in the native Linux, though it may be a few months before the experts assemble a package that non-experts can use. That's the way things go in the Linux world, everything works eventually, unless the manufacturer tries to keep the hardware specs secret (either from paranoia or in an attempt to prevent copying of content), but the bleeding edge really bleeds.It will definitely work if you install XP, though in my view installing XP on one of these is attempting to turn the machine into something other than what it is.

This just emits a wireless signal. The modem is normally what you need to worry about being compatible. Based off that fact, yes it is.

I'd do three things: 1) Do a search on Amazon for "USB Modem". As of 5 minutes ago, you'll be presented with 125 hits. Research time: start with the biggies (US Robotics, Zoom, Creative Labs, Best Data, Diamond, 3Com, etc); ask each if their product is ABSOLUTELY compatible with the 3ePC. 2) Go to Asus' website and plead with them to give you info on a USB modem they know will work. 3) Hope that somebody smarter than I am responds to your question. By the way, I also am (and I'm sure a good many others are) looking for a dial-up modem (not a high priority, yet). Please respond if you happen across any good news. Thanks.

I don't believe so. One end plugs into the device, in my case the LG 4G LTE USB Modem, the other into two USB ports. One supplies power to the modem and the other receives the signal from the modem and transmits it to the computer. The purpose is to enhance the signal by not using some of the USB port signal to power the modem.

yes but it all depends on your software and its compatibility with StartTech USB56KEM3 external fax modem

I think so. I use this modem for Ethernet connection and wireless, but it should work without a wireless connection.

Yes it will work. That is actually how Verizon and Time Warner set up my modem and tv box

Did not work for me. Using Verizon Fios issued modem/wifi router and WD external HD with power source.

No, the Emporia Essence is a GSM phone and Verizon uses CDMA technology. They are incompatible.

I have one but I don't live in the states, I live in Aruba and this USB wireless modem works great with a my local provider Sim card.

Hi, I looked up the specs on the modem and it should work as it supports DSL/VDSL modems.

I believe it should work with most any router , i've never had a problem with mine and i have had a few different models of wireless modems. what i like about it is you can use the App for it and operate it from anywhere..:)

I can't answer that as I use home wireless through my phone company. I would suggest talking to the people at your Verizon store.

Yes, it will work. However, you may not be able to maximize the performance of your modem. It would be better to get a newer router.

No you will need a SIM card which gives your Modem access to the Verizon network. You can use a SIM card from another Modem if you have one that is enabled. You will also need to download the Verizon Software to the computer that you are going to plug the Modem into.

Yes it works with any device that has a usb drive to hook up the wireless chip
