Internal modems(it will use software emulation) or winmodems are not supported really in Linux.External modems are real hardware modems.they may be costlier but works great with Linux.
but there are supports for some chipsets and urs too seems to be supported.there is a script called scanmodem which can tell u whether ur modem is really supported.U can get more details at:
http://www.linmodems.org/
scanmodem:
http://132.68.73.235/linmodems/index.html#scanModem
and do research(if u like!)
http://tldp.org reg modems and more,that may help.
and in Fedora or any linux,u can use wvdial or gui(fedora) to configure the modem if supported.
shell or terminal used in Linux is way better than what u see in DOS(in windows)
