so sad, i had only a learning intention, that is all
any way thank you very muchYou might be fine legally, maybe they just can't sell them. But the modem in the laptop will not talk to FreePBX. They just don't work that way, I'm afraid.

I would say the modem in the laptop, almost certainly will not talk to FreePBX, simply because I have never tried to use a modem in that way. It is always possible, but extremely unlikely.

because i look for that PSTN gateway linksys SPA 3102 here in qatar and didn't find it, people told me that is illegal to sell such voip devices !
It may be illegal to sell them, but that does not make it illegal to purchase. Obviously, it may also be illegal to purchase.
Google got me to dutycalculator.com which said:

That page linked me to here, which I cannot read.

The biggest issue is that since around 2003 or so, those devices are no longer actually modems (almost always) and are just RJ11 adapters and expect the full modem functionality to be handled in a driver, and those drivers are Windows only, hence the term WinModem. After a certain point nearly all of those devices were handled in software only leaving Linux (and FreePBX) without good access to them.
In theory a full FXO card could be done this way in software though.

I'm generally not a tourist. Avoiding tourists areas is normally my goal.
-
oh, i see, casablanca is your destination then, you will like it
-
we call it china of morocco, cuz you can find there whatever you want in terms of devices...

Ha ha. I'm sure. It is a huge city and the center of the country, I would expect everything to be available there. I hear that the weather is awesome too.
