Alot of modems are repackage and sold under new names. Look for a FCCID# on the modem.
http://www.netodragon.com/
Claims that (a company?) called NetoDragon "formerly Motorola" Modem Technology are not accurate. NetoDragon is making what they call a 'MDV92XP' chipset supporting V.92. Their website has a driver download page with drivers for Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, and XP. Caution: whois Netodragon? A Taiwan-based company whose front-page was a 90k jpg scanned image of a product sheet, plus a link to drivers. Sellers of these modems may call them NetDragon "formerly Motorola". This "formerly Motorola" part is inaccurate. (The NetoDragon or NetDragon modem is a soft (HSP) modem that includes a Motorola DAA (data access arrangement - the interface between the modem and the analog phone line), integrated into a 'MDV92XP modem controller'.) The driver version available from NetoDragon's website is 2.92.04P - and it appears upon examination of the files, that NetoDragon is neither 'it's own' chipset, nor a 'formerly Motorola' chipset: NetoDragon/NetDragon but is based on or licensed from Smartlink. However, Smartlink drivers do not support the NetoDragon modem - reporting an incompatible codec. The NetoDragon website was modified to remove reference to "formerly Motorola" and now includes the statement "NetoDragon trade name belongs to its respective owner and does not represent any other trade names."

Would anyone have this on a floppy already as it won't fit.
Its a 1.95 mb download. Or is there a generic driver that would work that will fit on a floppy?

Do you have a cd burner or just download it to a fill on the desktop. Do you need this driver for another machine?
You could also download it,unpack it,split the file into on a floppy. Then put them back together on the other machine. There is 25 files all together.The first 14 is 1.25 meg and the rest 1.11 meg.
