Modem Problems
If the Modem Seems Slow
■ Excess static or noise on a line reduces the overall
transmission speed of the modem connection. If necessary,
contact your telephone company about fixing this type of
problem.
■ If you are dialing internationally, line noise is often a problem
that is difficult or impossible to eliminate.
■ If you have call-waiting, disable it. Your telephone company
can provide instructions. Call-waiting can cause symptoms
similar to static.
■ Eliminate extra connections in the line. If possible, connect
directly to the wall jack.
■ Try another telephone line, preferably one normally used for
a fax machine or modem.
If the Modem Does Not Dial or No Dial Tone Is
Detected
■ Check all cables and connections.
■ Connect a standard telephone to the phone line and make sure
the line is working.
■ Make sure someone else is not using the same phone line.
