Using the 56-Kbps Modem
To take advantage of your modem's 56-Kbps x2** technology, you
must first make sure that your Internet service provider (ISP)
supports a 56-Kbps modem protocol.
1
Contact your ISP and determine which 56-Kbps modem
protocol they use.
2
Determine which 56-Kbps modem protocol your modem
supports. To view your modem's supported protocol, do the
following:
a) Click on the Start button, and select Programs and
Modem (or Modem & Audio).
b) Click on Modem.
c) Choose Options from the “Modem Status” window; then
choose Settings.
The available transfer speeds are displayed. The 56-Kbps
protocol your modem supports is listed in parentheses
following the 56-Kbps transfer setting.
If no 56-Kbps transfer setting is listed, your modem's
56-Kbps technology is not currently enabled.
Your modem and your ISP must support the same 56-Kbps protocol,
or your maximum connection speed will be limited to V.34
technology.
