Inasmuch as the Multitech ISI4604 multiport serial controller may be 
similar to the ISI5634 multiport modem ... I used them back with kernel 
2.4 versions, and I had no complaints.  For a long time they didn't have 
a 2.6 kernel driver for it.  However, when I last made the attempt 
Multitech had a driver that apparently supported early 2.6 kernel 
versions... but not the 2.6 kernel versions that were current at the 
time.  Hopefully the situation has improved.

If you really insist on going with a multiport serial card and external 
modems instead of straight-up with a multiport modem, then I have had 
some experience with SIIG multiport serial cards on Linux.  If I 
remember right they worked with the default kernel serial driver and did 
not require any special driver from the manufacturer.

Thanks,

Lee.
