Check the following on your computer:
■
Make sure your computer is turned on and that it does not
shut down automatically as part of an energy-saving
feature.
■
Make sure the modem connected to your computer is
turned on and is connected to the outgoing phone line.
■
Make sure the modem you are using with your handheld
has an on-off switch. Your handheld cannot “wake up” a
modem that has an auto-off feature.
■
Make sure the modem is connected properly to your
computer and is connected to the incoming phone line.
On a Windows computer, check the following:
■
Make sure that Modem is checked in the HotSync Manager
menu.
■
Confirm that the Setup String in the Setup dialog box
configures your modem correctly. You may need to select a
different Modem Type or enter a custom Setup String. Most
modems have a Setup String that causes them to send
initial connection sounds to a speaker. You can use these
sounds to check the modem connection.
■
Confirm that the Speed setting in the Setup dialog box
works for your modem. If you have problems using the As
Fast As Possible option or a specific speed, try using a
slower speed.
