The elvis is for funcards/Pic's etc so its not suitable for modems.

You need a Max232 cable and possibly a jtag lead, depending on which modem you want to play around with. There are several different types that can be used on the VM network. The type of modem you require also can also differ depending on which of the networks you are on - TW, NTL or CW.
