Uses the AB one

Any modem will work, but just use the AB remote access kit, it saves alot of headaches and will allow remote reconfiguration of the modem.

IN THAT CASE WHERE THE DRIVER OF THE MODEM WILL BE INSTALLED?

HOW TO CONFIGURE THE DRIVERS.

IN CASE OF AB MODEM KIT EVERYTHING MAY HAVE BEEN DEFINED.

IN CASE OF MODEM FROM OTHER COMPANY HOW TO CONFIGURE?

Here are some places to get started, generally I have found you cannot use handshaking (ie no flow control).
You will need to get the pinout of the plc to modem cable from the AB website (again, the cable comes with the remote access kit, it is worth the cost to get the kit).
