Windows 95, 98, or 2000: As the Windows oper-

Windows 95 and 98: Once the system has completely
started, do the following to set the maximum computer-
to-modem speed, determine your COM port, and test the
modem.
1
Open Control Panel in Windows and double-click
on the Modems icon. Click on the entry for your
new faxmodem and then click on Properties.
Set the Maximum speed to the highest speed
available (probably 115,200). This sets the speed at

Click on the Diagnostics tab. Highlight the port
next to the entry for your new faxmodem and click
on More info.
Note the Port and Interrupt entries under Port

Important Information table on the last page of

AT commands. A list of responses means that your
new modem is properly connected.
Windows 2000: The final step is to verify the COM port
setting of your faxmodem and perform a brief test. This
