I don't want to discourage you.

But internal modems have screwed up on me again and again. Including a nasty
habit of not turning off when I want them to.

I ended up shutting down every internal modem I ever had to go to a much
more expensive external modem.

But these days, I use a cable modem. With its handy on and off switch on the
front.
