- Posted by Bryan Henderson on July 5th, 2004
I have one of these modems and have just upgraded to Win XP and need drivers
for it. Can anyone help me to find this? The manufacturer is Pine Technology
Ltd product is FM-3621. TIA.

I have downloaded drivers from here and now my modem shows up as a Soft 56K
data fax modem, however it also has voice functions and that is what I want
to enable. Any suggestions? How do I identify the actual model I have? It is
marked on the box as a FM-3621 and in the instruction booklet.
The chip on the modem has the following info:
Conexant
RS56/SP-PCI
R6793-17
E 146591.1
0133

Something does not make sense. Your modem's chipset is made by
Conexant, yet you are installing drivers for an ESS Technology
chipset. My research suggests that the FM-3621 modem comes in at least
two flavours, one with an ESS2818 chipset, a second with the ESS2819
chipset. There is no mention of a Conexant based FM-3621 modem.
I would try a generic Conexant driver:

Or you could try ID'ing it with Conexant's Listmodem utility:

thanks for all the help I managed to download drivers and steer the
installation in the right direction. It didn't work automatically.

the chip is definitely Conexant but the instruction book refers to a ESS PCI
internal 56kbps fax modem card. Anyway I have downloaded drivers and got it
working now so thanks for your interest.

I suspect you have two modems in your PC. Would you please indulge me
by removing the Conexant chipped modem? Does the ESS modem
identification utility still find anything? What do you see in Device
Manager or Control Panel -> Modems?
Conexant's documentation for the R6793-17 chip (Doc. No. 100818B)
describes it as a "Host-Software Processed V.90/K56flex Modem Device"
with a combined PCI Bus Interface (BIF) and Line/Voice Codec (LVC).
That is, it is a HSF softmodem. Conexant's generic WinXP drivers for
this chipset are in excess of 1MB in size and look nothing like those
you have downloaded from the Opendrivers URL.
In fact your drivers are very similar to those of an ESS modem with an
ES56T-PI chipset. This chipset consists of an ES2828 AFE (analogue
front end) and an ES2898 DSP.
See
http://www.esstech.com/products/comm...898_ES2828.pdf
This makes it a controllerless modem, which is an entirely different
animal. The much smaller size (235KB) of the driver archive alone
suggests that it cannot possibly be for a Conexant HSF chip.
Furthermore, your ESS driver archive contains the file, es56tpi.sys,
which confirms the chipset type.
Here are generic drivers from ESS Technology.
ftp://ftp.esstech.com/pub/modem/pci/..._V052_Sign.zip
To add to the confusion, the reference to "ESS-2818" in the
Opendrivers URL is a furphy, as the ES2818 is an entirely different
AFE chip.
In short, something is not right. :-)
