If your "modem" is connect by Ethernet, then it's probably a 
router/modem/switch combo device.  Those don't even need drivers.  You 
just go to its IP and configure it there and Linux will get internet 
access through Ethernet.

If it's a USB-only device, then it's a simple modem and you will have to 
pray there are Linux drivers for it.
