Well, for the most part anything is better than a USR.  :-)

I think that the best modems... the ones with the best manufacturer fax 
support are going to be MultiTech (5634 series) and MainPine.  However, 
most modems with Rockwell/Conexant K56 chips do quite well, except they 
don't support V.34-Fax (SuperG3).  Some linmodems even work quite well 
(in particular the Lucent and the Conexant-Linuxant).

Stay clear of modems with USR/3Com/TI or Cirrus Logic chipsets.  Those 
seem to be the more problematic ones.
