Selecting a Country-Specific Modem Configuration
The internal modem is configured to meet operating approval in
the country where you purchased your computer. To set the
modem to comply with telecommunications standards and
regulations in other countries, you must change the country
selection setting.
To confirm that the modem has been approved for use by the
telecommunications agency in the desired country, check the
modem agency approvals label on the bottom of the computer.
Or, for the most up-to-date approval information, refer to the
Compaq website at http://www.compaq.com.
