Appendix I: Servicing Your
Boca Product
If your Boca product requires service,
first contact the authorized dealer from
whom you purchased the modem. If the
dealer is unable to assist you, and you
must contact Boca Research, Inc., please
follow the instructions below.
Our electronic BBS is available 24 hours a
day at (407) 241-1601 and will support
data transmission speeds up to 28.8Kbps
with settings of N, 8, 1. Once your
modem is functional, the BBS may be
helpful (especially during off hours) if
you have a question about product
settings, or if you wish to download
special software or utilities.
If the Troubleshooting section did not
resolve your problem, you may call our
technical support staff for assistance. If
you haven’t referred to the
Troubleshooting sections, do so now.
