Trendnet USB modem

Post by BillN »

Hello,
I am trying to use a Trendnet USB modem (TFM-561U) on my guest OS (win7). The host is also a win7 machine. The modem installed fine on host machine. When I launch VirtualBOX and go to setting, USB, the USB Device Filters show there is a Conexant USB Modem [0100]. I am not sure if this is a generic modem, because when I disable the Trendnet modem, VB still shows the Conexant USB modem, even though I have removed it from the list.
Is that possible to connect a USB modem to guest OS, and use the modem to dial out?
Thanks,
Bill

Yes it is possible to pass the modem to the VM and use it inside of it.
