You need high-speed. Like Comcast or Roadrunner.
Otherwise it won't work. Or at least that's what the Vonage guy told my Mom

I remember that, there was a fax program too. I could never get either to work

There's most likely some 3rd party app out now for using a modem as a phone. Or the other alternative of buying broadband and using skype.
