I have a Window 2003 VM and my customer needs to attach a USB modem to this guest. Is this possible ?

Thanks

Try using an ethernet USB hub. Digi do one called Anywhere USB but this has limitations as it only allows one client to connect to the 5 port hub at any one time.

Belkin do a ethernet USB hub which is cheaper than the Digi but also allows multiple clients to connect to the hub simultaneously but each device can only be connected to by one client.
