There are various chipsets by both Lucent and Conextent (Formerly known
as Rockwell).  It seems that most of the hardware modems that I have
come across use Conextent chipsets, but that can be hit and miss.  Every
Lucent one that I have seen is a Winmodem.  90 pecent of the time, if
it's a PCI modem, then it's a Winmodem.
