Setting Your Modem’s Dialing Properties For Various
Locations
Depending on where you are dialing from, it may be necessary to change the
country setting of your modem. The Dialing Properties window allows you to set
this and other options depending on the places or situations where you might be
using the modem. Using this utility, you can set up call waiting disabling and dial-
out prefixes, country or region settings, and area code rules for different locations.
After you set up the configuration for a particular place, naming it in the I am
dialing from box will allow you to return to these settings from those for a differ-
ent location with just a couple of mouse clicks. Below is an example of a possible
list of saved-settings.
To set up a location:
Step 1
On the taskbar, click Start. On the Start menu click Settings, then click
Control Panel. In Control Panel, double-click the Modems icon. Click
the General tab if it is not already visible. On the general tab, with the
COM port of your Actiontec 56K USB Call Waiting Modem selected,
click Dialing Properties.
Step 2
The Dialing Properties window will appear (see below.) Click on the
My Locations tab, if it is not already visible.
