Probably. It's been quite a while since I did any new ISDN connections,
and have never done it with internal cards, only with device line Annex
8000s via PRIs, and smaller Ascend Pipelines and Max 1600s (I have a couple
of Max 1600s and a variety of Pipelines here we're not using if anybody is
interested). I looked at a variety of internal ISDN cards with Linux about
10 years ago, but preferred to stick with external devices.
We use HylaFAX for all our incoming and outgoing fax, with Multitech
external modems. I've always avoided any internal modems as it's kinda
hard to reset a wedged internal modem without rebooting the machine.

broadside, thoroughly used up, worn out, leaking oil, shouting GERONIMO!
